Education
The Utah Shakespeare Festival has many educational programs, from Summer and Fall Classes to a school tour. A Shakespeare competition takes place each October, with schools from across the United States participating. The Shakespeare for Jr. Actors program, for ages 11 to 15, gives students an opportunity to learn about the plays of the season and see them all. At the end of the session, students perform scenes from the three Shakespeare plays.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“As long as learning is connected with earning, as long as certain jobs can only be reached through exams, so long must we take this examination system seriously. If another ladder to employment was contrived, much so-called education would disappear, and no one would be a penny the stupider.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept, everything they are offered.”
—Jean Piaget (1896–1980)
