Notable quotes in the article:

"We're presenting complex information here, but we're doing it in a way that makes even the most boring aspects of our curriculum something the students can be enthusiastic about. I love the material, and I want them to love it as much as I do."

-- Lee Mescolotto

"Education is not just about textbooks and computers. The classroom is a place for young people to develop their self-confidence, to have positive and rewarding experiences with peers and teachers, to learn the importance of helping and having compassion for others and to understand the importance of the role they play in society."

-- Tom Reed
