Talk:Trinity Valley School
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I think the current version is too wordy, as if a high school freshman wrote it. It's not as professional as other wikipedia articles.
[edit] Editing, editing, editing.
Given, it reads as a draft. Hopefully my draft will become a shining example of Wikipedia school articles.
I can only hope.
So, I agree with the anonymous user's statement. As the article's writer though, I have to stand fot myself and let you all - y'all sice I'm a Texan! - know in cyber world that I'm working my little heart out on research and expansion of this article. Interviewing parents, alums, staff, and students, I'm wanting to have the perspective accurate and true. It's taking a little bit of time.
(What kind of school plagiarises its school philosophy from another without credit? "For, as it has been said, goodness without knowledge is weak, but knowledge without goodness is dangerous." This school was started in 1959. In 1781, John Phillips wrote, in Phillips Exeter Academy's Deed of Gift that "Goodness without knowledge is weak and feeble, yet knowledge without goodness is dangerous. Yet the two combine to form the most noble of character."
I can't believe that a school of "higher" learning would blatantly copy/paraphrase something that is so old and well-known without properly attributing its source.)
