"Well, I think that you first, have to stop making excuses. There’s a lot of imperfections with “No Child Left Behind” and it seems like lots of times, educators especially, spend lots of time complaining about the imperfections. And I think the decision we made at Hug was we acknowledge that the imperfections are there but the greater calling we have is to educate each and everyone of our kids. "

- Andrew Kelly, Principal Hug High School, discussing the advice he would give other high school principals in how to achieve similar successful results regarding “No Child Left Behind”.
