“The exciting thing is how far we are able to extend learning. None of the extra material included in Michael’s books is on the test. That is not why it is there. It is intended to expand our children’s horizons so that they can make themselves more knowledgeable about things that interest them and so that they can be better educated about the civilizations that produced their world.” – Dr. T.M. Kemnitz

“The primary pedagogic purpose of ‘Caesar’s English’ is to teach vocabulary—the academic vocabulary that children will need to succeed in education and in professional life. But the classical education editions have a wealth of additional content. They are everything we want textbooks to be.” – Dr. T.M. Kemnitz

“The ancient Greek and Roman civilizations provided the inspiration for the classical education editions of ‘Caesar’s English.’ There is a difference between good and great; we are determined to bring to you what is truly great, and we will use the best that humankind has created to fire the imaginations of children.” – Dr. T.M. Kemnitz

“A teacher told me, ‘I think everyone is gifted in their own way.’ It is only when giftedness is discussed that someone feels the need to make it a universal attribute; someone may not be gifted—everyone must be. But just as everyone is not tall, even in their own way, everyone is not gifted, even when we twist the idea by saying ‘in their own way.'” – Michael Clay Thompson

Michael Clay Thompson has won the prestigious Richard W. Riley Award for “superior services to the gifted community.” The award reflects the unique place that Michael’s language arts curriculum has come to have in gifted education.
