"Students at Powderhouse Studios won't have the typical American high school experience—and that's exactly the point of the new school," its founders say.

The high school, set to open in a repurposed former school building in Somerville, Mass. , won't have grade levels or traditional classes. Instead, students will complete interdisciplinary (跨学科的) projects that tap into their interests and ambitions. They'll divide their days between seminars and project-based work, meeting with the education staff for guidance regularly. Students at Powderhouse will work with tutors instead of conventional teachers to learn math, science and the humanities—all of which will inform their projects. Classrooms, lectures and lesson plans—the things traditional schools are built on—won't be a big part of daily life at Powderhouse.

In short, Powderhouse will look more like a workplace than a high school.

Alec Resnick, one of the school's founders, said Powderhouse will make learning personal for students by helping them identify meaningful project-based work early on.

Resnick said that demanding and interesting work is often the thing that's missing for students who feel uninvolved in a traditional high-school setting.

"Motivation is missing, "he said. "The way you fix that is to get people doing hard work, not easier or more fun work."

Monica Martinez, an expert in school development, describes a future for American high schools that looks a lot like Powderhouse, with more fluid (易变的) schedules and personalized learning opportunities—and finally, with more flexibility for students.

"Most of all, students will progress at the rate at which they show mastery of academic content, regardless of time, "Martinez said.

Powderhouse will open in 2018 as part of Somerville Public Schools. The idea of reinventing high school appealed greatly to Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone, who asked Resnick and his team at Sprout & Co. to design a high school based on the non-profit's popular after-school programs.

Powderhouse's founders say they hope educators will learn from nontraditional schools like theirs. "We're pretty confident that the future of learning doesn't look like school, "Resnick said.

At the age of 14, James Harrison had a major chest operation and he required 13 units (3. 4 gallons) of blood afterwards. The blood donations saved his life, and he decided that once he turned 18, he would begin donating blood as regularly as he could.

More than 60 years and almost 1, 200 donations later, Harrison, whose blood contains an antibody(抗体) that has saved the lives of 2. 4 million babies from miscarriages (流产), retired as a blood donor on May 11. Harrison's blood is valuable because he naturally produces Rh-negative blood, which contains Rh-positive antibodies. His blood has been used to create anti-D in Australia since 1967.

"Every bottle of anti-D ever made in Australia has James in it," Robyn Barlow, the Rh program director told theSydneyMorningHerald. "It's an amazing thing. He has saved millions of babies. I cry just thinking about it." Since then, Harrison has donated between 500 and 800 milliliters of blood almost every week. He's made 1, 162 donations from his right arm and 10 from his left.

"I'd keep going if they let me," Harrison told theHerald. His doctors said it was time to stop the donations—and they certainly don't take them lightly. They had already extended the age limit for blood donations for him, and they're cutting him off now to protect his health. He made his final donation surrounded by some of the mothers and babies who his blood helped save.

Harrison's retirement is a blow to the Rh treatment program in Australia. Only 160 donors support the program, and finding new donors has proven to be difficult. But Harrison's retirement from giving blood doesn't mean he's completely out of the game. Scientists are collecting and cataloging his DNA to create a library of antibodies and white blood cells that could be the future of the anti-D program in Australia.

I learned my first lesson at a meeting. As we sat around the table I heard Meg, who was 1a recent operation, talking to Judith, the manager of our project. "Thank you so much for 2my daughters to their dance lessons last week." Judith said, "It was nothing."
