Important Knowledge

A primary object should be the education of our youth in the science of government.  In a republic, what species of knowledge can be equally important?  And what duty more pressing than communicating it to those who are to be the future guardians of the liberties of the country?
―    George Washington
[I guess I’d throw in reading, writing, math, scientific reasoning, philosophy, history, music, art, travel, a foreign language and physical education / sports (which includes home econ., cooking, budgeting and food / health / diet awareness).  Well, that would be my short list anyway…  Did I mention this should include adult / continuing education?   —    KMAB]
