Poetry of

Linda M. Rhinehart Neas

  Imagine a School

 

Imagine a school where

students laughed and sang, danced and played.

 

Imagine a school where

the students were every color, shape and size

from every culture and they all worked together in peace.

 

Imagine a school where

not knowing shows how smart you are,

where asking questions is rewarded,

and where tests are fun to take.

 

Imagine a school where

all the students succeed because

each is treasured for their uniqueness

and honored for the many ways they understand

and the many ways their knowledge can be demonstrated.

 

Imagine a school where

no student is ever left behind

because there is always time to wait for them,

offer them a helping hand,

a second chance, another way

until they too succeed.

 

Imagine!
