OUR PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY COMES 1ST!

THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRETY OF OUR DIALOGUE REGARDING OUR DEVELOPMENT OF A MASTER PLAN FOR ALL OF CALIFORNIA EDUCATION, EACH AND ALL OF US MUST ALWAYS BEAR IN MIND THAT 'THE EDUCATION WE DO IS ALWAYS A FUNCTION AND EXPRESSION OF WHO WE ARE!' AS A RESULT, MY VISION AND POLICY AND PRACTICE OF EDUCATION NECE3SSARILY DEPENDS UPON THE EXTENT TO WHICH I AM TRULY DEEPLY FULLY OPEN TO EXPERIENCING, KNOWING AND TRUSTING MY OWN INNATE INSTINCT FOR LEARNING. EACH OF US OWES IT TO OUR SELVES, AND TO EACH OTHER, AND TO EACH AND ALL OF OUR CHILDREN, TO CHERISH & WELCOME & NURTURE THIS INNATE LEARNING INSTINCT THAT EXISTS WITHIN EACH AND EVERY CHILD, SO THAT EACH CAN AND WILL FULLY REALIZE HER/HIS INNATE POTENTIAL TO BECOME A SELF-INITIATING LIFELONG LEARNER.
