Education further expands the knowledge that we all hold and can open our eyes to a whole new way of life. Thus, education is needed to spread the word of sustainable living and for change to occur.
Education, however, is not limited to the classroom. Additionally, the processes of teaching and learning are not limited to the relationship between teacher and student. In fact, teaching and learning involves an entire community of people. Recognizing that parents, school administrators, and even community leaders also have an impact on the learning process will surely make the learning experience more beneficial for our students. By uniting all members on a common goal, students will recognize that there is a support of people behind them that will guide them through their wonderful years of education.
