Any nation that expects to be ignorant and free expects what never was and never will be."...President Thomas Jefferson" One form of insanity is to do the same thing over and over and expect different results."...Dr. Albert Einstein" One very important objective of education is to help our children develop a lifelong love of learning so they will effectively educate themselves throughout their lives."" Human potential, though not readily apparent, is there waiting to be discovered and invited forth."... Dr. William W. Purkey, Co-Founder of the International Alliance for Invitational Education" The four broad goals of education are competency and confidence in personal adequacy, social competency, economic efficiency and civic responsibility."" We learn and 10% of what we see; 15% of what we hear; 20% of what we both see and hear; 40% of what we discuss with others; 80% of what we experience directly or practice; and 90% of what we attempt to teach others."...National Training LaboratoryStudents are diverse people to be unfolded by best knowledge educational practices, not things to be molded by superimposed, unconnected, costly, winners-losers, one-size-fits-all standardized test driven projects.To predict students scores on standardized tests, simply check the postal mailing zip code which show the sociio-economic level of their home and communities."Children and others do not care how much we know until they know how much we care." Excellence can be achieved if Cares more than others think is wise; Risks more than others think is safe; Dreams more than others think is practical; and expects more than others think is possible."" There are limitations on what we can do alone; There are few, if any, limitations to what we can do together."" Our minds are like parachutes and They won't work unless open."The height and stability of the pinnacle is directly related to the breadth and strength of the base.Overheard in a teachers One of my jobs is to help kids keep lids on their ids." The only title in our democracy superior to that of President is the title of Citizen."...Former Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court
