I want to be a science teacher. My friends asked me why, but I'm intrigued by it and I'm quite good at science at school.
The first time I did a school play was the first time I felt I was good at anything at all. I just loved it.
My deep dark secret is that I was a nerd in school. I liked the theater. I liked to study. I wasn't very good at sports.
I did one or two plays at school. Once I played a tree, so I never thought I would be a good actor.
I hardly ever missed school, and I always got my work in on time. I was a good student and always got top grades.
But people that are worried about unborn babies are the same ones that vote against kindergarten programs in Indiana or school lunch funds out of the federal government.
Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.
Moderation is part of faith, so those who accuse Muslim schools of fostering fanaticism should learn a bit more about Islam.
Catholic schools prepare every student to meet the challenges of their future by developing their mind, yes, but also their body and their soul and spirit.
School is practice for the future, and practice makes perfect and nobody's perfect so why bother.
You know, in high school I thought Catholicism was funny and sort of ridiculous, but then I also liked it, too. Like, I definitely turned to it in times of trouble.
I always was very interested in intellect and the massive world of knowledge out there, but in terms of being a kid who wanted to be treated as an equal, school is not the place.
That was really so upsetting when you are trying to pass on some very serious knowledge and be basically, treated worse than a student coming off the street because his father pays the tuition. Come on. Give me a break. This is no school. This is a j...
I get stubborn and dig in when people tell me I can't do something and I think I can. It goes back to my childhood when I had problems in school because I have a learning disability.
I think there's so much negative influence on children in school settings. It becomes learning by rote to pass a test. It's not contextualized.
One of our key strategies has been to restructure traditional high schools into small learning communities with personalized attention and a range of options.
See, I'm a Pisces, so I get down with love songs. I'm totally into slow jams and old-school R&B, all that.
I love to come in and play with a wig or glasses or clothes. I love using props. I'm from the Peter Sellers school of trying to prepare for the character.
I can't get enough of London! I love all the picnic benches, the old-school phone booths and parks in the middle of the city.
When I first started out in Houston, it was theater or bust. And I loved it. I still love it. And then I went to undergraduate and graduate school for acting.
I still love old-school hip-hop, but there hasn't been a lot that I've taken from the new stuff.
