My theory of education is that the most important stuff comes very early. If your early teachers make you enjoy learning and find the world around you interesting, then as you get older, you'll basically educate yourself.

No offense to my Algebra II teacher in high school, for instance, but I could have sat with the textbook and taught myself everything he did. But only because my early teachers cultivated those inclinations in me.
