Senior Center Excel

Every Tuesday me and a few friends go to the Mendon Senior Center to help people learn about technology. Normally everything works, and all of their problems can be solved. Yesterday one repeat customer came in and had a few questions about Microsoft Excel. There were four people there and none of them knew how to help this lady. Throughout all of middle school we were taught PowerPoint and Word, but never Excel. I was upset I could not answer the simplest of questions about a common piece of software. I think it is important for kids to learn Excel at a young age because of how integrated it is in adult life.
