Welcome to Mr. Gidseg's Kindergarten webpage. This site will be used to
help keep you informed about a variety of aspects of our kindergarten
program.
Check back often to learn about upcoming events as well as ongoing work in
the kindergarten.
Here are some of my favorite quotes:
"Receive the children with love, educate them with reverence, let them go
forth in freedom" ~R. Steiner
"The important thing is not so much that every child should be taught, as
that every child should be given the wish to learn." ~John Lubbock
"One person with passion is better than forty people merely interested."
~E. M. Forster
"... we need to remember that not everything that is measurable matters and
not everything that matters is measurable." ~Elliot Eisner
"We must remember that intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus
character -- that is the goal of true education. The complete education
gives one not only power of concentration, but worthy objectives upon
which to concentrate. The broad education will, therefore, transmit to
one not only the accumulated knowledge of the race but also the
accumulated experience of social living." ~Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
"The Purpose of Education" February 1947.
