Text Quotes
There’s been a growing effort to kick soda out of the schools. And governors as different as Arnold Schwarzenegger in California and Mike Huckabee in Arkansas have worked hard to get soda and junk food out of their state schools, which is good  (Schools Quotes) I want to promote the introduction of art history in primary schools and to convince the general public that, even in a period of economic crisis, arts funding is an absolute necessity at the federal, state, and local levels  (Schools Quotes) Catholic schools in Indonesia routinely accept non-Catholic students, but exempt them from studying religion. Obama’s school documents, though, wrongly list him as being Indonesian  (Schools Quotes) The trouble is not that schools don’t work; they do. They’re excellent machines for achieving historically accepted purposes. In suburban schools are children of the rich, who grow up to privilege and anesthetic oblivion to pain - and who then use the servants produced by ghetto schools  (Schools Quotes) Schools have never been about getting access to information. That’s the job of libraries. Schools and universities have nobler missions as gentle gatekeepers. Their role is to control ideas on the loose and to present the best and noblest ideas to the young  (Schools Quotes) Many expanded-time schools have generated extraordinary results. In some cases, they have completely closed the achievement gap, all while installing curricula with a richness rivaled only by elite private schools and those in the most upscale suburbs  (Schools Quotes) During the decades after Brown v. Board of Education there was terrific progress. Tens of thousands of public schools were integrated racially. During that time the gap between black and white achievement narrowed  (Schools Quotes) A surprising number of teens I meet in rougher schools around the country find refuge in novels and creative writing. It’s not always the usual suspects either, the high achievers  (Schools Quotes) Even while in school - initially, Vineberg Allen in Mussourie, and later, a number of schools in Ludhiana - I aspired to achieve great things in life. Admittedly, I wasn’t quite sure about what these great things would be  (Schools Quotes) We don’t have drama in public schools in France. I had never taking an acting class  (Schools Quotes) It’s true that many of the leaders who started at non-elite colleges as undergrads later attended prominent graduate schools in law, business, medicine, and so on. But the point is that they found their own way there - as young men and women in their early 20s, not teenagers pressed into action by parents and peers  (Schools Quotes) Marches work, rallies work, civil disobedience works, direct action works, voting works, writing letters works, speaking to churches and schools works, rioting works.  (Schools Quotes) Hunger, inadequate medical care, poor housing, and inferior schools are enemies of the sense of wonder. It is easier and less expensive in the long run to prevent a loss of imagination by providing adequate nutrition, housing, medical care, and schooling than it is to try to restore that loss.  (Schools Quotes) The number of African Americans in my profession is woefully small; about two percent of architects in the country are black. I’d like to see more diversity. That’s why whenever I’m asked to speak at middle and high schools I always say yes.  (Schools Quotes) I would like to see more African-American singers as part of our opera companies. If you take music and the arts out of the public schools, then you’re going to lose a lot of people that you might have discovered were talented, very early.  (Schools Quotes) The future is built on brains, not prom court, as most people can tell you after attending their high school reunion. But you’d never know it by talking to kids or listening to the messages they get from the culture and even from their schools.  (Schools Quotes) The schools play an important role when it comes down to protecting children against violence.Violence is one of the principal reasons why children don’t go to school. It’s also one of the causes of the alarming school dropout rates.  (Schools Quotes) At this point in my life - age 24 - I have chosen a fairly strange path that not many are walking. I am a professional spoken word poet who tours the world performing and teaching. I run an organization called Project VOICE dedicated to using this art form as an education and empowerment tool in schools and communities of all kinds.  (Schools Quotes) It will be a great day when our schools have all the money they need, and our air force has to have a bake-sale to buy a bomber.  (Schools Quotes) As a civil servant in charge of the government’s Strategy Unit, I brought in many people from outside government, including academia and science, to work in the unit, dissecting and solving complex problems from GM crops to alcohol, nuclear proliferation to schools reform.  (Schools Quotes) I have been expelled from five different schools when I was a kid. And I learned basically all what I do by myself.  (Schools Quotes) We all know the old expression, I’ll work my thoughts out on paper. There’s something about the pen that focuses the brain in a way that nothing else does. That is why we must have more writing in the schools, more writing in all subjects, not just in English classes.  (Schools Quotes) I went to public schools, and while Gary was, like most American cities, racially segregated, it was at least socially integrated - a cross section of children from families of all walks of life.  (Schools Quotes) The keys are, or were, the training methods used by the ancient mystery schools. We’ve got hints and tips, we’ve got little bits on the papyri, but we don’t have, in our hands, a complete curriculum of the ways in which they induced altered states of consciousness and the projection of the mind.  (Schools Quotes) I didn’t mean to spend my life writing American history, which should have been taught in the schools, but I saw no alternative but to taking it on myself. I could think of a lot of cheerier things I’d rather be doing than analyzing George Washington and Aaron Burr. But it came to pass, that was my job, so I did it.  (Schools Quotes) There are amazing schools and amazing educators that are doing a wonderful job. And then there are a lot of educators that are not prepared to deal with inclusive education. They haven’t been trained. It’s really quite lovely and easy when you understand how to do it.  (Schools Quotes) America needs education reform on all levels to expand quality schools, build on past successes, and lower college debt.  (Schools Quotes) Progress for black Americans depends on good schools because education is the last great equalizer  (Schools Quotes) American education will be determined by the quality of American public education, and that’s public schools that are available.  (Schools Quotes) I think it’s a right that every American parent should have - choice and competition in education, and choice in schools are most important to me.  (Schools Quotes)
