• “Educators are finally recognizing that unique learning needs are the norm rather than the exception.” Warger & Pugach, Educational Leadership 2/96
• “After 24 years of teaching, I can tell you that when parents bring their kids in for the first day of kindergarten, they’ll either say, ‘Oh, he’s sharp as a pin,’ or, ‘This one’s a real devil, you’ll have your hands full.’ No one ever comes in saying, ‘My kid is just average.’ But, oh, how fast we make them average.” James Alan Astman, Headmaster, Oakwood School

• “Most of us do our best work when improving our own performance, not when trying to surpass others. Yet, in classrooms we have established the dynamic wherein each child wishes to see his classmates fail.”
• “In most classrooms the success of child A is dependent on the failure of Child B.”
• “...we have created classroom environments wherein the level and intensity of competition far exceeds that of the adult world.”
Richard D. Lavoie

From The Power of Focusby Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, Les Hewitt
“...Often, children are told to focus on their weaker subjects and not spend so much time on the ones they do well in...Wrong!...this doesn’t give you a competitive edge in the marketplace or position you to be wealthy. It just keeps you average. In fact, it’s an absolute insult to your integrity to major in minor things.”
