"... We feel that if [the school is] an environment which promotes teaching and learning, promotes mutual respect among not only students but students and adults, an environment where kids feel comfortable to come forward and talk about their problems, then students will be engaged in learning." Bill Modzeleski, director of the U.S. Department of Education's Safe and Drug-Free School Programs. |
