"Not to equip the young with a moral sense is a grave ethical failure on the part of any society." --Thomas Lickona
"There is no such thing as a value-free education. Everything a school does teaches values--including the way teachers and other adults treat students, the way the principal treats teachers, the way the school treats parents, and the way students are allowed to treat school staff and each other. If questions of right and wron are never discussed in classrooms, that, too, teaches a lesson about how much morality matters. In short, the relevant issue is never 'Should schools teach values?' but rather 'Which values will they teache?' and 'How well will they teach them?'" --Thomas Lickona
"To succeed in teaching respect and responsibility, teachers must make the development of a classroom moral community a central educational objective." --Thomas Lickona
