I mean, I went to a Catholic boys' school for a year, but that was to play hockey. Religion class was quite contentious for me.
One Roman Catholic School I will never forget. They sang a song to receive me. Part of the words were, 'Thank you, Lord, for giving us Terry.' It was beautiful; it really brought tears to my eyes.
When I was teaching, I didn't feel I had a home, a place where I truly belonged.
I'm proud to be a Cardinal.
Education and the process of educating is a total integral, contextual situation which includes students, teachers, parents, administration and environment.
In 10th grade, I was kicking it with the seniors. I introduced myself, and they were like, 'Yeah, Demetrius is cool, but we're gonna call you Pac.' That was it! It could be worse!
I went to James Monroe High School, a big school in the East Bronx. My first promotion was the first alumni reunion dance. I got all the names and addresses out of the yearbook. It came off very well.
I went to Mission Bay High School. Me and my brother, we both went there.
There is much more to schools than buildings. There are academic activities, how it reaches the community and its proximity to other programs.
Every school is different and serves different populations.
I want to be an involved parent in my daughter's life and do the things that other parents do, like go to the PTA meetings.
They're my instructors, and every parent will understand that.
I went to high school in Redondo Beach, so a lot of people that went to my school are from Inglewood or Gardena. My best friend lives in Gardena.
Most schools, the football players are kind of the kings in school.
When I was a high school freshman in Honolulu, I would sit with my girlfriends on the bleachers of the school amphitheater every morning. We'd meet in the same spot and chat for an hour before homeroom began.
Education is a shared commitment between dedicated teachers, motivated students and enthusiastic parents with high expectations.
I don't agree with boarding school. It's not something that I would do with my children, but I think it's something that kind of exists in England in a traditional way, and you do form very close relationships with the girls you go to school with. But it is a strange thing to live in an environment which is solely female.
I ran for president of the student council at my high school in Louisville. And ran against a guy who I thought was better known and little bit better student and managed to win.
Engaging with your school as a unit of community is pretty powerful.
When I walked to school in the mornings I would start out alone but would pick up four other boys along the way. We would set out together after school across the village green.
I went to an amazing school in Brooklyn called St. Anne's that's a really kind of creative hot bed.
I don't know what it is that I love so much about high school, but I'm attached. The empty hallways. The teachers. They made me feel so much.
Part 3 BACK TO SCHOOL (THE NORMAL KIND)
The idea of being with my peers at a real school seemed much more exciting than making movies.
A lot of my colleagues at school became great friends of mine.
