It is only an auctioneer who can equally and impartially admire all schools of art.

Oscar Wilde

Maintaining order in the classrooms has never been easy [and] it is evident that the school setting requires some easing of the restrictions to which searches by public authorities are ordinarily subject.

Byron R. White

I do not know what 'moss' stands for in the proverb, but if it stood for useful knowledge... I gathered more moss by rolling than I ever did at school."

Ernest Shakleton

Here are my strong reservations about the wave of computer networks. They isolate us from one another and cheapen the meaning of actual experience. They work against literacy and creativity. They undercut our schools and libraries.

Clifford Stoll

Jails and prisons are the complement of schools; so many less as you have of the latter, so many more must you have of the former.

Horace Mann

Let us reform our schools, and we shall find little reform needed in our prisons.

John Ruskin

As regards moral courage, then, it is not so much that the public schools support it feebly, as that they suppress it firmly.

G. K. Chesterton

There needs to be a complete resetting of the negative publicity that we've had recently with the Desert Vista coaches, cleaning house. The school's a wonderful school academically. It would be nice to see them do well in all areas, like basketball.

Greg Evans

My education was dismal. I went to a series of schools for mentally disturbed teachers.

Woody Allen

They've always run into those really good private schools.

Ben Braaten

In this way, some film schools can be destructive.

Richard King

Schools tell us if they want it or not and then we route it around to as many schools as we can. You pick us basically.

Joe Armenia

They pick their students and control the size of their schools, and that's an unfair advantage.

John Broughton

I think it is to the advantage of both schools.

Barbara Harvey

We're just being gracious and really enjoying it. We're not like the big schools. We've never had this before.

Chris Fleming

In 1999, my association realized something was wrong. More and more schools were eliminating recess.

Rhonda Clements

This could sap thousands of dollars from schools that are already financially strapped to provide education to children. Obviously, we wouldn't want that to happen. We want to protect our partners so we are moving them to other, private organizations.

Greg Shields

In the end, voters will be looking at me based on my record. And my record, I think, is great. I've been consistently good on issues involving affordable housing and our public schools and public safety. I don't expect that everyone agrees with all of my positions. But if I had a record on issues that was out of step, then I'd kind of have to worry.

Phil Mendelson

There is certainly a sense of urgency to fix everything now, but the planning has not been thorough for some of these schools.

Clara Hemphill

We also have a schools out program, ... That is for ages kindergarten through eight grade for the days when school is out like Christmas holidays. On those days we will have an all day program from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. where there will be all day art classes and a good, fun place for the kids to come.

Mary Saunders

It's very hard for adults to change their personality, and Harvard needs a personality who can get all the faculty and schools to work together for the good of the university.

Bruce Alberts

I've been disappointed in the sportsmanship of other schools and their way of coping with a program that has evolved. After so many years, we have a right to evolve. Their taking away from that is really disappointing, but that's OK.

Susan Hedgcock

We are in the midst of an educational crisis right now. First-class schools are being replaced by first-class jails.

Bonita Parker

There were some good runners there. I think we'd have come in maybe sixth or seventh overall if all the top 3A schools were there. We just need to keep bumping it up and improving.

Dayl Wood

In Cambodia, they said the problem was that the kids couldn't get to the schools or libraries, so we donated bicycles.

John Wooden

What we hope people will get out of it is less identification of the schools, but just the notion that student success can happen at a variety of institutional types. It's not so much the release of these colleges as great institutions, but what can we learn from them that matters.

Jillian Kinzie

Several schools are calling. They're just now getting around it. They're still focused on next week. After that, they'll jump on the juniors.

Ronnie Peacock

The discussion has increased enormously within the schools of the NCAA in the last year, ... We're on the right track, but those few schools that really profit from the relationship have the toughest decision to make.

George Hacker

Between the two schools, we've had great running backs, but Lorenzo is probably No. 1. I'm not going to sit here and lie to you. I can judge talent, too.

Jamie Morris

The Deakin editor [James McConville] has spent a lot of time talking up his review and talking down other law schools.

Jennifer Clarke

It is not inevitable that our schools have incidents like this. We can make our schools even safer.

Gerard Kennedy

In the meantime the schools said they had their need, and we gave it to them. Now we're trying to look at another avenue.

Annabeth Surbaugh

I speak for a lot of church groups, youth groups, schools, colleges and do personal appearances. I've done conventions and trade shows. A lot of different little hats.

Donna Douglas

We expected to see Palm Beach, Broward and Dade schools coming to the museum. But we're getting school groups booked from as far away as Wisconsin. That gives a whole new meaning to Spring Break in Fort Lauderdale.

Irvin Lippman

I just think it would have helped the small schools.

Gary Molea

Our dilemma is the schools need to get back to the education business. This is the sixth day that we have been at full capacity at all of our shelters.

Paul Parker

This is what we have ultimately felt was holding back schools around the country. When people ask us what the major impediments are to starting more schools like KIPP, it's the three F's - funding, facilities and freedom - and facilities are kind of the most prohibitive.

David Levin

We're planning on opening up two modular schools next year to use until the replacement schools can be built.

James Hoyle

Unless we arrest the wasting decline of our public schools America is destined to be an also-ran in the emerging digital economy.

Lou Gerstner

We wanted to move this along as quickly as we could knowing that [interest from other schools] very well could take place.

Jack Hayes

This is a fund-raising project for the Decatur Public Schools Foundation and also to beautify the front of Eisenhower.

Judy Taylor

It's bad timing for the college. They're trying to downplay it. You hear of worse things at other schools, but I thought they would have at least handed out something to ease the parents' minds saying it was just an isolated incident.

Michael Fischer

We have had a relationship with the New Brunswick public schools for 27 years. We have provided services for hundreds of their students over the years, and this is nothing more than an extension of that relationship.

Mark Finkelstein

That whole area is going to be developed in the next 10 or 15 years. Three or four years ago, we never thought we would need two new schools out there, but now every empty piece of property in Manatee is being developed.

Harry Kinnan

The city is certainly broke and it doesn't have the citizens today or the businesses to afford to rebuild on its own schools and services like transportation.

Matt Fellowes

Living for Tomorrow: The Power of Individuals to Prevent Violence in Schools and Communitites.

Larry Bell

I have been very privileged to meet some of the most dynamic women of the day, and these ladies who have generously given of their time for Communities In Schools are as great as they come. We are so lucky to have these high caliber leaders participating in our Lunch With A Leader(TM) online celebrity auction.

Bill Milliken

Many schools throughout the nation provide a post prom for students and find it to be a very successful event.

Jennifer Wright

Each of the five bowl games features great teams, proud schools and exciting student athletes. Mr. Gibson and his sons are the envy of every single college football fan in America.

Kirk Herbstreit

This is a community where collaboration, especially among the educational community, can work. Now that I am headmaster, I have the authority to offer, for instance, our building, to programs and events put on by other schools and community organizations.

Steve Mckibben

Yeah, they do that, but that's why we will come back and review it three or four times. And that's really what happens with most schools we work with.

Scott Straubhar

I would invite members of the community to go to Columbus and talk to the legislators about funding the schools. When I was a private citizen, I went there and spoke to the Ohio Senate Finance Committee.

Shelia Smith

I'm excited about it. Even when it was just the two schools (North and South), it was something we all looked forward to. Everyone gets excited about it. I just hope we have good weather and a good day this time.

Jerry Kelbley

We reenact battles in our area, but we also do living history, enacting daily life at schools and community centers.

Alex Davis

'Play Up' is more than the games on Fridays and Saturdays. It's not in opposition to what we're out there promoting, and what 'Play Up' means. 'Play Up' means the investment our schools have made into getting better.

Karl Benson

Schools help create cohesion and the Marseillaise can help cement people from different backgrounds together.

Jack Lang

I think it's good change. It tells schools that we're serious about accountability.

Rep. Jodi Tymeson

The policies apparently are working. We have stronger enforcement and the message about bringing guns to schools is getting through.

Bill Modzeleski

Our newest product is called the Chameleon. We marketed the product first to high schools, and now the University of Maine girls' basketball team is using them.

Glen Snow

The movie picks up at my experiences at the second, third and fourth schools. This is where I had principals tell me [ballroom dancing] was too elitist and ask where will these kids ever use it. They didn't see what I saw.

Pierre Dulaine

I can see how mental kicking is now. A lot of schools and the pros don't want to put money on a kicker until they see him. It's someone they don't know yet.

Chris Cook

When you have teachers being beheaded and schools being closed in parts of the country, when you have suicide bombers killing Afghan civilians and Canadian diplomats, that is a very disturbing trend.

Richard Norland

Just about everyone we recruited had a BCS school (scholarship) offer. That was our competition this year. Other than in-state competition with BYU, we had very little competition with Mountain West schools. It was all BCS schools, which is a good thing.

Kyle Whittingham

A big chunk of those are teachers we put in high-poverty schools to increase the teacher-to-student ratio.

John Mackenzie

These schools didn't get like this in two months. This will take a while to put back together but you can't tax people out of their homes.

Diane Snure

Schools are not clear about the mission of the school. They're not clear about what they're trying to do besides get the kids into college. I think American education right now is driven by test scores.

Marlene Barron

I don't mind, as long as we win. I've heard some people say that the Catholic schools shouldn't be here, but it wasn't a problem when we beat them two years ago. Me, I don't really care whoever is in front of us. We play who they tell us to play.

Bob Cimmino

I think all of our elementary schools have some challenges.

Mary Louise

Make believe that we're taxpayers, and we want to support you, but we want to know what it's going to cost to run these schools. People want to know what it's going to cost.

Rick Caporale

I think $150 million is a lot of money. I'm concerned about a plan to demolish every single building that hasn't been built in the last 10 years. I would like to see if it wouldn't be less expensive to retrofit some buildings. Some schools have done that and provided a 21st century school.

Mark Tanner

Vlad did great. He beat very good players from some of the California schools. I don't put expectations on the guys, but he wasn't seeded, and if you want to look at it from that perspective, he shouldn't be doing that well.

Kevin Kowalik

Loves the idea of kids going to see rock 'n' roll icons and seeing the Impressionists, maybe for the first time. We've done such a slick job of eliminating the arts from the schools that Allen's effort is especially important.

Richard Andrews

These schools aren't the worst. They are good schools, but they have the toughest challenges.

Jens Orback

We do not charge any of the public schools to use any of the facilities. That's like hitting the taxpayers twice. We don't do that.

Doug Hood

Out of all the schools that I was recruited by, they stuck with me from the beginning. I really liked them. I like it out in Idaho. Going up and meeting everybody, I liked all the coaches. It was not just about basketball, they're very sociable and you could talk to them about everything.

Reggie Larry

We need money that schools can use to expand classes. A lot of this depends on the sort of support the university can get from the state.

Carolyn Williams

This is the first time that we did not meet our Annual Yearly Progress for students across the board, ... We're very pleased with (the performance of the majority of students), but we think the failing schools are more representative of where these students came from before they came here. We don't think its fair to label this school as failing.

Charles Lyons

You have all these dynamics that drive our specific market. Our economy is better, property taxes are lower, our schools are better -- all these things make our real estate market better than the national average.

Kerry Johnson

Some other schools backed off because I got a little homesick [at New Hampton]. I visited and it was similar [to Lithuania]. The team took to me well, and it felt like home away from home.

Freddy Petkus

We learn how other schools accomplish their things. It's a way for us to pick up on trends that are happening and what's going wrong or right for each government. They've taken cues from us as well.

Roger Ludy

We want to focus on helping all students know they belong. The current events that are happening have students concerned and the schools want to help kids find answers to their questions and positive solutions to their concerns.

Ashley Kelley

While we've heard a lot about the problem of obesity, only recently communities, schools and workplaces are starting to intervene and impact the way we live. Until we really change the education factor — and say, look this is what you need to do to be healthy — we're not going to see a real change.

Beth Trapani

We're helping students from the roughly 30 schools that announced they are closed indefinitely in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.

John Beacon

Rather we had a few schools that did not take the necessary verification work seriously enough.

Dominique Boillat

It's important for the schools to make sure they new hires are of the quality they want. It's one more thing we can do to make parents feel safe leaving their children with these teachers.

Daniel Wallace

I think it's a disadvantage. They host the tournament there, the schools in San Antonio get to play there and we have to drive four hours to get there. I wish they could come down here and we could just chill until game time.

Rachel Carmona

He's never owned up to the fact that plenty of inner-city minority schools are doing the job with less money. He's an ideologue so he can't admit Catholic schools are doing better jobs with less money, ... If you read the corpus of his work, it's clear he wants to use schools for indoctrinating kids with a progressive ideology.

Sol Stern

Because we were delayed, it was tough to get in contact with all of the schools. A lot of the athletes are involved in other sports, and we just had a tough time getting it all together.

Vera Rodriguez

He's not afraid to not conform . . . and that can upset people, so it's pretty correct [that there's two clear schools of thought on Connolly]. He would have his enemies, but he'd have a lot of supporters as well.

David Wilson

I know schools are not collection agencies but feeding our children is key.

Mary Cochran

We cannot consolidate our Texas schools. You cannot consolidate Houston I.S.D. with Klein I.S.D. You try and do that, they whole thing will fall apart.

Patricia Harless

It's unreal. It's really incredible. I came here as a freshman to make the NCAA Tournament. That's the main reason I came - I knew we had everyone coming back. I had a lot of other schools that I looked at, but this seemed the most obvious team that would win.

Chris Fleming

Right now, we're turning qualified applicants away from schools.

Brenda Cleary

We want great schools for our kids, safe neighborhoods and the very best in emergency services, ... Proposition 76 would make it harder for us to provide those services.

Alex Padilla

The relationships that people have - that are sexual, psychological, emotional - these relationships are not open to supervision by parents, schools, churches, or government. Nobody has any right to intervene at all in any kind of relationship like that.

Madalyn Murray O'hair

We've got most of the schools up and operational. One school early in the morning and then in the afternoon.

Kevin Davis

Now we know it's far more important to focus attention to what's going on inside of the schools, curriculum, improving principal leadership, instruction and professional development.

Barbara Semedo

You have to be consistent. If everybody hits at the right time, you're in. The key is having the type of kids to the point where you know you're going to be in the top four or five schools going in. The rest of it is doing it that day.

Billy Peek

And there is certainly nothing courageous about creating a Brave New definition of marriage that will lead to more innocent children being placed in homosexual households that are fatherless or motherless by design--and schools teaching homosexual 'marriage' as normal and just another lifestyle choice.

Michael Heath

Most of the schools that go to this are much larger schools. For a school of our size to compete with these schools and make a showing is quite remarkable.

Campbell Pryor

Most schools in Michigan only have one gym. Many girls will lose the opportunity to play basketball.

Maureen Mahoney

The ban on soda in Connecticut schools looks like an idea whose time has come ... even though most people don't think it will be very effective curbing obesity in children and teenagers.

Douglas Schwartz

We need to keep in mind that these bare essentials are necessities in our schools. Windows and air conditioning are needed regardless of program offering.

Monty Salyer

It has to be tough because it changes the routine, the lifestyle the players are accustomed to. Families are scattered, kids are in different schools. It's a big adjustment.

Bobby April

Every school from the elementary to the two middle schools to the high school, we had representatives of every school.

Rusty Fumi

Some bands had flag bearers and 10 to 12 of every instrument. I knew they were going to be bigger and better. Some of the schools are five times the size of Peru.

Ravi Ross

We are making these conscience decisions for our schools as well as the overall interpretation of our village.

Jason Briscoe

Dr. Burns is a proven leader with a passion for education and this community. We have great confidence in his vision and are excited about his plans for leading our schools.

Patti Head

I want to be part of the community. I look at the people paying the taxes for our schools. And I want to be one of them.

Constance Collins

I think we're behind, I do. A lot of schools are way over 50 percent.

Andy Spears

Club is where most schools start. Once you have any idea of going up a level, you have to continue the (club) program as much as you can.

David Hilton

Our problem is many of our schools are too close together.

Lawrie Kobza

The entire West Side is going to be outraged. These schools will not be built by 2008.

Robert Lucero

We wanted to show we could swim with the big schools.

Judd Haney

I'm just doing this because I think it is probably the most important thing you can do for your community. Florida by and large under-funds its schools.

Robin Gibson

We invite (schools with offensive mascots) to come here and play sports and everything, so we request that they be more sensitive to minorities. It's hard for us as a school to have a stance on the issue when we continue to invite those teams with their mascots.

Sen. Ryan Birkman

All the coaches in the 32 schools in the district will meet next week to determine the individual athletes that will qualify for the championships. The top 16 records in each weight class will qualify.

Jeff Rice

We also have salad bars at our high schools.

Ronnie Arnold

The teams that the Rose Bowl wanted were the big name schools. Alabama was the third choice behind Duke and Princeton to play Washington.

Cynthia Brown Hale

It was very moving that these people, who may be earning about $50 a month, are willing to risk their lives to keep schools going. It's amazing that they are willing to make this sacrifice.

Scott Baldauf

Schools used to fund-raise for luxuries, like a trip to the water slides. Now, we fund-raise for things we have to have.

Kirk Gibson

I'm convinced you can get great quality of education at a huge variety of schools. And that's coming from someone who is a graduate of Harvard.

Don Heller

Basically in the long run, charter school funding needs to be addressed because currently they are being funded at a lower amount than district schools.

Mike Jerman

That was a good win. We've been working toward this. For us to be able to compete with these big public schools that train year-round ... I'm real proud of the girls.

Liz Nash

The governor has asked that all of the public schools in the state of Georgia close on Monday and Tuesday to help conserve fuel.

John Thornton

I wasn't real sure if Jennifer would be in front, because I wasn't sure what the other schools would have, but I knew she'd at least be close to the front. I think that's just the beginning of her dominant career.

John Wells

Some schools want me as linebacker and some want me to play running back. I'll play wherever they put me.

Sergio Kindle

Connectivity at the home opens the door for a new paradigm in education. We'll be able to link homes and schools like never before through interactive multimedia tools. There are a plethora of applications that make schools more flexible in the present performance of its duties.

Joe Kitchens

The current auditorium is appalling. This goes to the fundamental of what schools are about. You can?t pull out potential in the current facilities. You can teach music, but you have to have a place to apply it.

Wayne Martin

It's always been a priority that Duke be engaged with the public schools in an effort to strengthen them. We have a really large number of people who live in Durham; therefore, the quality of education is very important because it affects our employees.

John Burness

There's so much negative information in the media. If the building of bridges and roads and schools and power plants was portrayed in the media, it would make a huge difference. We need to stand by our men and women so they can keep their morale up.

Deborah Johns

It is the parents who really drive true changes in education, and public education will only improve to the extent that parents are given some say in what's going on in the schools and the president speaking from the bully pulpit is not going to give them that opportunity.

Patrick Reilly

They don't have to spend their money to build the schools and they obligate future homeowners for the next 20 years and obligate future school boards that they must keep those children in those seats. We can't do that.

Roger Dearing

It's important to compete with other schools that are better. You get better and you learn that there's more out there.

Roxanne Cardejon

Those schools that are making strides in literacy - they have literacy coaches.

Sabrina Pellett

What the administrators are trying to achieve is a conference where the same schools are in the conference for all sports, including cheerleading. We will have one set of common bylaws that all schools sports are abiding by.

Jim Spears

It really hurts those schools that have a long-standing tradition. The schools that this was done for don't have a lot of history or a lot of money, but they will start having this tradition and money in a couple years.

Tim Tessalone

We felt pretty good about the game. I'm pleased. Greenville High School's never been this far in the history of the school. I'm so proud of the girls. And I wish Mann luck in the state finals.

Pam Player

I saw a lot of schools and a lot of traditions, but never anything like that. It was incredible, having thousands of people there just to watch you walk over to your field.

Demetrius Jones

We certainly don't want legislation that is detrimental to our school and the plans that have been brought forth do not plan to benefit most of the schools in our area.

Margaret Davis

It was the right thing to do because I think that there is more opportunity in the township schools in terms of facilities and after-school programs.

Tom Bauer

There's a lot going on. We didn't think that rebuilding the schools, which is necessary, should be lost among everything else. It's a stand alone item and it should be looked at fairly for what it is.

Richard Shapiro

I think it's a great level of football. We beat up on each other playing every week. Two schools of thought here. You are either ready for the playoffs or banged up going into the playoffs.

John Wilkinson

Opponents of charter schools will be quick to draw the conclusion that charter schools aren't pulling their weight, but that's not fair.

Peter Murphy

This is really a pilot program for the state. If the program does well here, the state hopes to expand it to other schools across Florida.

Charlotte Emerson

There is only one justification for universities, as distinguished from trade schools. They must be centers of criticism.

Robert M. Hutchins

It is one of New York City's best public elementary schools.

Clara Hemphill

But we know that young adults choose different paths in life and it won't be mandatory that they go to college. We know that there are many excellent programs in the community colleges and technical schools and certainly the military is an option for some kids.

Jose Afonso

He needs to greatly increase the school funding. The priority for those parents is for the schools to get better.

Billy Easton

Say what you will about small town schools, ... but they give more individual attention and have smaller class size.

Gary Harris

I just volunteer. I like kids. I've been doing that ever since I've been here. I like to switch schools. Last fall I was at Griffin Middle School. I talk to them, read to them.

Lawrence Timmons

Arkadelphia public schools ensure that homeless children and youth have equal access to the same free appropriate education, including public preschool education, as provided to other children and youth.

Virginia Anderson

We realized from the front door of this high school to the back door of the Millerton schools is exactly 5 1/2 miles. Roundtrip is 11 miles.

Rudy Eschbach

Fundraising has become survival for many of the schools. We don?t have enough money in our budget to buy everything we need.

Randy Gravon

This continues the high school's ongoing efforts to keep drug abuse awareness at the forefront. We continue to be vigilant in making sure that the message is clear that (drugs) will not be tolerated at the high school.

Valerie Miller

The schools would fail through their silence, the Church through its forgiveness, and the home through the denial and silence of the parents. The new generation has to hear what the older generation refuses to tell it.

Simon Wiesenthal

I really am at a loss at how you stop the tide. It's going to be a challenge for this board and this district to turn these two schools around. And I don't know if it's possible.

Noreen Carvolth

It adds a little dimension to it. I know quite a few of the players. But it's a game for the students -- for the players, the cheerleaders. The school's been very supportive of it just because it's been such a great learning experience for all the student-athletes.

Byron Schunk

Money for schools is given through tax money. Every year there is a plan of what revenue is expected. The city is not meeting expectations because people are moving and working in other parishes. Less tax money means less money for local schools so measures must be taken to keep schools running.

Richard Hartley

We work with the school police a lot when it comes to graffiti, because most of the graffiti artists are juveniles. They keep an eye in the schools, look at the writing on the notebooks ... and they get a feel for who might be doing these.

Roxanne Walker

Schools are the key to increasing property values. In the future, there's a lot of development. They're going to be very overcrowded, too.

Brian Fuller

Wisconsin Democrats are focused on making life more affordable for our middle-class families, so they can pay for their health care, have a good-paying job and send their kids to college. Whether it is our schools, health care, jobs, energy costs, or the ongoing war in Iraq, one thing is clear: When it comes to these priorities, Democrats are on the side of Wisconsin families.

Joe Wineke

The College Board's recognition of four of our AP programs is a compliment to Keystone School's overall approach to education. We put motivated, capable students in small classes with dedicated, experienced teachers in a homey, safe atmosphere.

Hugh Mcintosh

I encourage students to really research each of the schools. The bottom line is that they really need to research and look at the entire package. There might be some surprises, and some strategies they will like. In this case, the student is the consumer. The ball is in their court.

Geri Federico

The Red Cross has an agreement to use some junior high and high schools as secondary shelters, and all school district employees are subject to serving as emergency employees.

Steve Bolman

It's one thing to just go there, but it's another thing to talk to other people about what they're trying in their schools. You don't get that through online research or watching a DVD.

Donna Mutzenard

A lot of what we do is important in delivering funds directly into schools and that can make a big difference with extracurricular programs and scholarship programs.

Peter Fitzpatrick

Certainly schools can teach about Christ and his affect on Western civilization. But equally, students should be informed about Mohammed and Buddha and Friedrich Nietzsche.

Peter Simonson

Let me go to Clinton's new proposal: to have uniforms in public schools. And people are doing that. How come they're doing that? Dress codes! I find that abhorrent.

Russell Means

They don't all think the same. They went to different schools and worked in different businesses with different backgrounds.

Robert Tull

It would have been extremely disruptive with the middle school's academic program, ... With the local decision, we were fine with that.

Robert Hale

The schools will also be able to access current information about the state of online learning.

Doug Levin

It's all part of smart growth, ... It's accessible to transportation, shopping, schools, parks. . . . It's ready for families to move in.

Anne Wilson Schaef

Parents use the Report Card's indicator values, ratings, and rankings to compare schools when they choose an education provider for their children. When parents already have a child enrolled at a school they use the report cards as an annual audit of how that school is doing academically.

Peter Cowley

You have to try; it doesn't matter if you are not seen as one of the top high schools in New Jersey. Worry about the hard work you have done, and that will pay off.

Julissa Ventura

This is mainly going to alleviate overcrowding at Double Churches. We're going to let fifth-graders who get assigned from those two schools to North Columbus remain at their schools, if their parents want them to continue there and they apply for a hardship. Students in the other grades can apply for a hardship, but we will look at space available.

Jennifer Allen

In their search for environmental influences in human health, study researchers plan to examine such factors as the food children eat, the air they breathe, their schools and neighborhoods, how often they see a health care provider and even the composition of the house dust in their homes.

Duane Alexander

The smaller schools weren't ready to fund all of the increases. I am just disappointed it didn't get passed.

Morgan Burke

It's a celebration of what the arts can do in public schools.

Jose Mercado

These are the schools that are getting it done. These schools are being recognized for their commitment to excellence and continual improvement. Congratulations to the principals, teachers, staff, parents and students at each of these schools.

Kathy Cox

Everybody wants a clean, well-funded police department ... (and) good public schools. But will everybody go (into the voting booth) and do what's right on the assessor?

Paul Cordes

It hasn't been anything that's jeopardized life. They're out away from schools. They've all happened early, early in the morning.

Annette Singletary

All of our buses have to pass inspection and all of our buses have always passed inspection. I don't believe we have ever in the history of Fremont schools had a situation where an axle has come out from under a bus.

Jim Marquis

Life safety takes priority. We have three schools near the area and traffic becomes very dangerous when school lets out, that's why we need to act now.

Bob Hunter

I don't remember anybody saying how much money we've just spent to upgrade the physical facilities at our schools, which would be part of that complex of issues.

Paul Brewbaker

There is excitement in the air, ... We're not going to be a big draw like the over-the-mountain schools are. But the crowds have been supportive.

Tim Sanders

This is more about a different way of trying to measure progress than trying to favor any group of students or schools.

Hanna Skandera

All my experiences with Lonoke schools have been great.

Kevin Mckenzie

Tech saw what I could do before all those other schools did. That's another reason I chose them.

Whenever you have a community involved with its school district, the boys and girls are rewarded. I appreciate the chamber's participation in the schools.

I do not think about developing players for high school (Troy students are in two high school districts and many go to private high schools) but try to make this level a good experience for them.

Michael's a committed athlete. Loves the sport and has wrestled well. We've wrestled against the Eastern Slope schools in our region a lot this year and he's dominated in those matches.

I hear regularly from schools, hospital administrators, law enforcement, government officials and a host of other citizens throughout the second district about the need to enhance border patrol and crack down on illegal immigration. The costs to our education, health care and criminal justice systems are overwhelming.

The conference has some work to do ? as well as the schools....

Peter Nicholson

We're looking at diversity within our own community. I feel it exposes students from both schools to a variety of cultures.

The school's a bunch of trailers. My daughter has to go outside and walk through the rain to go to her lunch.

One of the reasons why we supplement the bowl payouts is to help ensure that schools aren't overly concerned about the finances of their trip.

It is time to put a stop to Planned Parenthood's efforts to sexualize our children. We urge parents and concerned citizens across the country to ensure that Planned Parenthood is not allowed in our schools and churches.

We try not to deal with the crowd. The school's administration is usually good about handling those types of incidents. It's better for everyone involved if we let the administration handle it.

Even when they say October, that still doesn't mean for sure. Pitt County Schools didn't have anything to do with it, because the curriculum is statewide.
