QUOTES OF THE MONTH

A shared vision is not an idea … it is, rather, a force in people's hearts … at its simplest level, a shared vision is the answer to the question, “What do we want to create?" ~ Peter Senge

One of the saddest things about US education is that the wisdom of our most successful teachers is lost to the profession when they retire. ~ John Dewey
