A high-school teacher, after all, is a person deputized by the rest of us to explain to the young what sort of world they are living in, and to defend, if possible, the part their elders are playing in it

I was accepted for a high-school internship program at Lawrence Livermore National Labs, where I conducted research on network security vulnerabilities and technology that could automate security weakness detection.

I think they exceeded my expectations and their own. They're still learning what it's like to play high-school ball. But we're shooting for state. We're in second place right now, and we control our own destiny.

Chris is kind of a cut-up. When he plays, he has a lot of fun. He's not as intense as Jeff was. If he was, I'd probably have lost him by now. He wouldn't be playing high-school tennis. He is so athletic. I've been coaching for 34 years, and he is the most talented all-around player I've had. He has a gift.

So many people were trying to tell him what to do. Friends say, 'I want you to go to Maryland because I want to see you play. You mean you have an opportunity to go to North Carolina and you're not going? Kentucky -- they're the No. 1 winning program of all time!' That's tough on a high-school kid.

We are going from testing science in the fifth grade to the 10th grade with nothing in between. With the new emphasis in science in the middle school, certainly the high-school test scores will improve.

I saw right away that high-school wrestling was a lot more intense. The matches are longer and there is a lot more conditioning needed because you're going against wrestlers that are a lot more experienced. It took a little time to adjust to that.

I remember the day when you shot 100 free throws a day, 365 days a year. I don't think our guys are doing that and I don't think a lot of guys do that. A lot of people talk about how bad shooting has become in general. To be a good high-school basketball player, you should be able to hit a 15-foot shot.

When you talk about basketball in northwest Ohio, in Putnam County... I imagine it?s a lot like Indiana high-school basketball. I don?t know if you could find many counties in Ohio that have had six teams make it to the state finals in any sport.

My father was kind of a local pillar of the community, a high-school teacher and football coach. He was always very politically knowledgeable because he was a social studies teacher. But in terms of his activism, it was more social and charitable in nature, rather than political.

I think Stephanie was good for volleyball in central Ohio. I've known her since she was a high-school player, and Stephanie was quite a competitor back then. That has been a characteristic of her teams.

He threw a couple of high-school balls on Sunday,.. You don't expect an NFL quarterback to throw passes like that. If the Dolphins' defense had better coverage, they could've broken the game open.

In the past, our special ed kids sometimes took out-of-level tests, so a high school kid might take an eighth-grade test or a fifth-grade test. This year, every high school SpEd kid took a high-school level test.

There's essentially no data that lifting weights for an elementary-age child is going to make them a better athlete. For the younger child, this really has to be fun (because) their motivation is a lot different than the middle-school or the high-school athlete who wants to be bigger, stronger, faster.

In 1955, the nation was still largely industrialized, and South Dakota was an agricultural state. A high-school education was a good level of attainment. Now, to be a player in an information economy, people need more education.

There are tough moments, but I see them happy and jovial, and I know that's the environment that speech and debate breeds. I valued my high-school experience and wanted to bring that to the kids.

[It doesn't help that The Click Five's songs seem designed for teens with high-school crushes and breakups; on] Just the Girl,.. When she sees it's me, on her caller ID, she won't pick up the phone, she'd rather be alone.

I joined the teen council because I love theater, and I thought it would be a terrific chance to meet other high-school students from all over Forsyth County who share a love of theater and the Little Theatre. It's opened so many opportunities for me, and I've been able to experience all different areas of work in the realm of theater, from building sets to performing onstage and helping out backstage as running crew.
