Famous quotes containing the words high and/or school:

    “I cannot remember things I once read
    A few friends, but they are in cities.
    Drinking cold snow-water from a tin cup
    Looking down for miles
    Through high still air.”
    —Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    “Nevertheless, no school can work well for children if parents and teachers do not act in partnership on behalf of the children’s best interests. Parents have every right to understand what is happening to their children at school, and teachers have the responsibility to share that information without prejudicial judgment.... Such communication, which can only be in a child’s interest, is not possible without mutual trust between parent and teacher.”
    —Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
