on the occasion of our common assessment planing session

The quality of curriculum is not strained,
It droppeth from gentle clouds of essential knowledge like unto rain.
Upon upturned faces it does fall,
it giveth both tools and skills to those both big and small.
It yields that one thing which can perceive the boundless universe in its all,
a new idea that grows like a vine upon the scaffold of bloom’s taxonomy lifted tall
The proximate reach is made just a little more
by standing upon the shoulders of those who lived and wrote and thought before.
