2023 Future Problem Solvers Score High at State Bowl

Dalton Middle School students competed in the New York Future Problem Solving State Bowl held at Malloy College, Long Island, NY on March 20, 2016. All the teams scored very well. One of the teams (Minelle Jeddy, Arya Prasad, Ryan Katz, Arik Gulati and Alexandra Garcia {not shown}) - all representing the 5th grade class of 2023 - came 3rd in the Division.
The question - or 'future problem' - the team developed and answered was: Because workers are overworked and stressed out how might we come up with ways to keep workers happy, refreshed, productive and with a good work-life balance in 2046 and beyond?
