While investment in education proverb

 While investment in education without accountability is a waste of resources, demanding accountability without making investments is a waste of time, ... We believe the president's call for education reform will be an empty promise if we can't also find common ground on education investment.

 Gore's attack on the Texas education system is a thinly veiled attempt to discredit the education reform and accountability measures that have taken place in states around the nation. While Gov. Bush is offering bold reforms for our public schools through accountability, high standards, and reading, Al Gore is making the case for the status quo.

 [Fueled by the push for higher educational standards, accountability and more funding sources, local governments are investing in information technology for education.] They believe technology is the path to their future, and they are making that investment now, ... There is no hotter vertical market moving forward than education.

 Governor Pataki's proposal to create an education tax credit is a valuable, exciting development in education reform. Parents who are most in need of choices in education have a new door opened to them. Programs such as this in a half-dozen other states have spurred millions of dollars in private investment in education and have made a huge difference in the lives of many low-income families.

 These Blue Ribbon Schools are an example of what teachers and students can achieve, ... For the first time, we are insisting on results and accountability in return for our federal investment in education.

 The federal deficit is a concern, but education should not be cut. Increased education investment must be an essential part of the strategy to reduce the deficit. Education investments will more than pay for itself by increasing economic productivity and innovation and reducing the incidence of costly social issues like unemployment, poverty and crime. When our students succeed, our nation succeeds.

 Education is the cornerstone of a society, ... The most important investment we can make collectively and individually is in education. It amounts to an investment in the development of the province.

 The president is taking his comprehensive education reform agenda to the people. His education reform agenda is based on making sure no child is left behind.

 [Worries about accountability may also have played a role in the decision to open brand-new schools rather than add teachers and students to existing schools. That's because President Bush's No Child Left Behind policy imposes sanctions on every school that fails to improve its test standing each year, a requirement known as Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). By the state's own accountability measure, the schools in Orleans Parish have the lowest performance scores in the state; East Baton Rouge Parish is 10 places higher on the list of 65. The state department of education has already asked federal education secretary Margaret Spellings to limit AYP requirements for 20052006 to students enrolled in the same school for two years.] I am reluctant to waive, even partially, AYP or approve broad changes in state AYP definitions at this time, ... the linchpin of the No Child Left Behind accountability system.

 We had a lot of waste in this district. Some people will be laid off, but hopefully not as many as who got notices. I don't think this will affect the quality of education because, let's be honest, we haven't had quality of education here for some time now.

 Education develops the intellect; and the intellect distinguishes man from other creatures. It is education that enables man to harness nature and utilize her resources for the well-being and improvement of his life. The key for the betterment and completeness of modern living is education. But, ' Man cannot live by bread alone '. Man, after all, is also composed of intellect and soul. Therefore, education in general, and higher education in particular, must aim to provide, beyond the physical, food for the intellect and soul. That education which ignores man's intrinsic nature, and neglects his intellect and reasoning power can not be considered true education.

 He's quite proud of his record. Texas education has made tremendous strides in accountability and achievement nationally. Since 1998, Texas has put billions of dollars in education. He will run on that in the fall.

 There's a need for accepting responsibility - for a person's life and making choices that are not just ones for immediate short-term comfort. You need to make an investment, and the investment is in health and education.

 Education reform has not been supplemented with education funding. While we're waiting for that to catch up, we're finding we have to meet higher demands with fewer resources.

 Any education that matters is liberal. All the saving truths, all the healing graces that distinguish a good education from a bad one or a full education from a half empty one are contained in that word.
