there was a school. School was the place where kids went to learn. They walked many miles to get to school, suffering through snow and heat. They sat in long, straight rows. They read many books there, and wrote their lessons on the blackboard. They ate lunch there. They listened to the teacher and took notes. They used the bathrooms to go to the bathroom. (Many don’t believe it, but some say it’s true.) But there was a wall around the school that kept the pu- pils inside. And there they lived for seven hours a day. It was a world within a world. As the school grew larger and more crowded, the restricting wall almost choked the students from the freedom they wanted. Pressure mounted against the wall until something had to yield. Then came “open noon hour. It wasn't much, but it made a nick in the wall. Before long, open campus” developed for sen- iors, and the wall began to crack.

Soon, more and more students were surging through the weakening barrier. And to everyone’s surprise, they handled their re- sponsibilities well. Time passed and the aging wall began to crumble with decay. At last the motivation and strength of the students proved too much for the wall to hold; its usefulness had ended. The students recognized this and freely pushed their way through the wall, no longer confined to the outgrown classrooms. When they reached the other side of the wall, the young peo- ple gazed about and were astonished at the boundless horizon they had discovered. Marking the sun as their goal, they set to their task, living with humanity, and learning with the world as their school. And the wall fell down.
