“Good is the enemy of great
“Good is the enemy of great. And that is one of the key reasons why we have so little that becomes great. We don’t have great schools because we have good schools. We don’t have great government, principally because we have good government. Few people attain great lives, in large part because it is just so easy to settle for a good life. The vast majority of companies never become great , precisely because the vast majority become quite good – and that is their main problem.” Jim Collins That is also the main problem that the majority of our public schools face.

Veribest Independent School District
Mission Statement The Veribest Independent School District, as a safe and enjoyable center of learning, will provide for each child an education to reach his/her full potential through the interactive involvement of students, parents, staff and community members. A positive, innovative learning environment develops self-worth, self-discipline, and Godliness, which motivate our students to become productive citizens in an ever-changing society. In support of this mission we believe: Each individual has the right to be recognized and treated with respect. Each individual is accountable for his or her actions. Faith in God gives us strength and eternal hope. Each individual has the potential to be successful. The family is important for providing love, guidance, discipline, encouragement, and an environment of sharing and growing. Knowledge is gained through education and experience. Learning is a life-long process. Friendships enable us to give and receive support. Our community is an essential part of education. The family is one of the strongest influences on learning. High expectations for success must be the norm.
