They said it thousands of times to the many visitors whom they helped tour their Saturn School, both onsite and online: Our students made a video that showed new ways to teach and be taught and to learn, and show what they know. It was a lot:

I truly appreciate the opportunity to tell the story of the St. Paul Schools Saturn School of Tomorrow, 1987 - 1998. President George H. W. Bush visited Saturn School back in 1991 and extolled the unique educational program there: each student created their own Personal Learning Plan.
They created that plan and took responsibility to master the skills cited there. They then showed and shared what they mastered with their parents and advisor. They echoed the words on our video, "There's no place like school." And so it was.
