Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or honors:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
“He most honors my style who learns under it to destroy the teacher.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
