Many students have the day off as it is Martin Luther King Day. Though everyone realizes Dr. King was a civil rights leader, many may not realize the extent to which Dr. King cared about the issue of education. Following is a quote from Dr. King that I thought was worth sharing with you.
Said Dr. King...
"At this point, I often wonder whether or not education is fulfilling its purpose. A great majority of the so-called educated people do not think logically and scientifically. Even the press, the classroom, the platform, and the pulpit in many instances do not give us objective and unbiased truths. To save man from the morass of propaganda, in my opinion, is one of the chief aims of education. Education must enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from the fiction.
Schools Count Corp will do all we can to enhance the above of condition, no matter the school, city or country.
Many thanks,
Dick
