“Since my last report, this employee has reached rock-bottom and has started to dig.”

“Takes him two hours to watch
60-minutes’.”

Being courageous is a choice

...not a reaction

Some kids matter more than others

Educational equity refers to the principle of fairness in education. It means that each child receives what they need to develop to their full academic and social potential.

“We can, whenever and wherever we choose, successfully teach all children whose schooling is of interest to us. We already know more than we need to do that. Whether or not we do it must finally depend on how we feel about the fact that we haven’t so far.”
