School leaders often concern themselves with the current needs of students, which is a great way to stay up to date on all the latest teaching techniques. Center Line Preparatory Academy Principal Veronica Kisor decided to take a moment to ponder what students might need in years to come.
With this in mind, she accompanied five of her students on a trip to get a first-hand look at a real college campus, Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona.
