True Christianity is contagious. It is caught more easily than it is imparted. More than any other faith it is mirrored in the life of the believer. And in school it must obviously be caught from the teachers, for they are the pattern for the students. The contract between [student and teacher] must be unusually close, closer than in most private schools..." Frank Gaebelein
