Challenges are just part of the journey.  There’s no accomplishment without struggle.  No triumph without tests and failures along the way.  – Jon Gordon, The Carpenter

Our job as public educators isn’t easy.   We are preparing the next generation of American leaders . . . we are providing the foundation for our own future.  For these young people to truly be Ready for Tomorrow we must provide both academic skills and life skills.

We must ensure the next generation is better prepare, is more equipped, to lead than we are as today’s leaders.  Our job is difficult; the challenges are real.  We face struggles, but we must overcome them.  We are tested and we don’t always get it right, but remain committed to our cause.  We embrace the struggles of our journey knowing the joys of success will be sweet in the future.
