The Community School
Rifka99, I've made some changes to the The Community School article. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on my talk page. Cheers --Matt 16:24, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Let's try to find another way to get the sentiment that this expresses in the article:
 * Students absolutely rave about their teachers and their experience at the school and often maintain a lifelong connection to the school. Regan Littlefield Russell, a 1991 Community School graduate writes: "I look back and know I would not be where I am today had I not begun there...That is the magic of CSchool, it is a circle of love that forms a family that never will judge you, will hold you when you cry, kick you in the ass when you feel sorry for yourself, celebrate when you succeed, and help you up when you fail."-The Community School newsletter, April 2003.
 * It's not very encyclopediadic - I'm not sure how to fit the sentiment in within the context of the article. Thoughts? --Matt 18:58, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
