I even mentioned it would only be right if we had a school named after him and he said no.

We feel that if a school is growing quite well, even if they don't meet AYP, they're on the right track.

Our kids are fighters. They had several opportunities to quit tonight and they didn't. They'll come right back again next week.

At the time, it was the right thing for our team. We think we made ourselves better in the long run and it helped build the team we have now.

I love that record, it's a classic. It's one of those songs that if you hear it when you're having a bad day, really hits you. The way he sings it makes you feel the whole world is against you.

He's an amazing man. Here is a man of unbelievable character... who has his ideals and philosophies about life and does not waiver from them. They are a combination of... a strong work ethic, giving back to the community, believing strongly in education. I could go on and on and on.
