I can see how mental kicking is now. A lot of schools and the pros don't want to put money on a kicker until they see him. It's someone they don't know yet.

Schools have a responsibility to ensure that the homework is achievable.

Now, there's absolutely no denying the need for a greater investment in public schools.

Our job is to zero in on where (the pros) want their racket to be and to duplicate that over and over.

We just need to market to (teenagers) through gay-straight alliances in high schools. Just tell them here are some films you might enjoy; come together as a group and join us.

They understand the big picture. They said they want more money spent on schools, but they also said they want wise use of funds. There's a sense of responsibility about it.
