One of the goals of living in a lunar colony would be to set up a working community. So yes, there would be schools, but I don't think there would be too many pencils to sharpen or much paper to use. It would all be done by computers or with some kind of cosmic gadget for gathering and giving out information. How wonderful it would be to have a branch of the International Space University on the Moon. You would have the opportunity to get "up close and personal" with data needed for a lunar research project right from the Moon and then be able to send it back to Earth! Research and development would be very important at the university level. Can you imagine the discoveries and inventions that could happen?
