"One of our key strategies has been to restructure traditional high schools into small learning communities with personalized attention and a range of options"

"Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow"

"Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other"

"Education is a private matter between the person and the world of knowledge and experience, and has little to do with school or college"

"At the heart of the Reggio Emilia approach is the belief that children are full of potential, competent, and capable of constructing their own learning"

"A University should be a place of light, of liberty, and of learning"

"Did you know that nearly one in three children live apart from their biological dads? Those kids are two to three times more likely to grow up in poverty, to suffer in school, and to have health and behavioral problems"

"Learning is always rebellion... Every bit of new truth discovered is revolutionary to what was believed before"

"As we read the school reports on our children, we realize a sense of relief that can rise to delight that thank Heaven nobody is reporting in this fashion on us"

"He who opens a school door, closes a prison"

"Learning and teaching should not stand on opposite banks and just watch the river flow by; instead, they should embark together on a journey down the water. Through an active, reciprocal exchange, teaching can strengthen learning how to learn"
