As we started the program, many students didn't want to try the fruit.

This really is a pleasure, and I thank all of you.

It can be really tough sometimes. It's more than just handing out Band-Aids.

I really hope that by giving the children a chance to try something as simple as fruit, it will open them up to want to try more things throughout life and make them more curious and adventurous adults.

If you have somebody who doesn't want to be there, it's not good for the students.

We're excited for the students who have made the championship round of the fourth annual Reader's Digest National Word Power Challenge. This year's competitors have been absolutely terrific, and we congratulate all of the state champions. We are looking forward to a spirited final competition tomorrow.
