Change for the sake of the future.

There is always talk and hype

About what we, the students, are going to do with the rest of our lives.

But schools don't really give their students advice

On what to expect after high school, the right words are only spoken once or twice

Maybe in a students senior year. 

Before teenagers know it, the time for determining their future is near.

 

Teachers and schools need to make the change for schools

To give students the right tools

For excelling after high school and in the future.

They are unprepared and quite confused. 

The idea that schools are lacking in giving this advice can't be excused.

School systems need to step up,

Maybe even start a club

That helps students prepare for their future. 

Teachers need to act as a booster

For students and their dreams of college or jobs, 

Even for the kids who act like snobs.

Stories from the teacher's past that should be told,

To give students an insight of first-hand memories, no matter how old.

Teachers and schools need to make the change for schools

To give students the right tools

For excelling after high school and in the future.
