“For those of you that are unaware, failure is an option. If you really want to be that school district that removes failure from the equation,
then you as a district are failing your students. Students need to understand that failure is part of life—it happens. And whether you like it or not, they will have a much more difficult time when they get out of school succeeding
because you as a school have never let them
experience failure, nor have you given them the opportunity to know what it means to
learn from that which they did not the first
time understand.”
Fröderick Frankensteen, No Diploma Left Behind

“As long as we think about the competitive power a school might possess because of its size rather than what the daily social experience will be for the vast majority of children (most of them not football players) we are missing the boat. What all children want is a safe environment where they are known and appreciated. I do not believe it is possible to provide such an experience for enough children in gigantic schools.”
Michael G. Thompson, Best Friends, Worst Enemies: Understanding the Social Lives of Children
