Famous quotes containing the words school and/or district:

    “Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
    —Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)

    “Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
