Vito Perrone designed the New School and its unique programs for teacher education

“Vito understands fully and believes completely in the potential of education, quality education for the individual and for expanding the general welfare of a society as well as providing the basis for societal and cultural renewal and enhancement of those socio-cultural values, which will result in the nurturing of human potential. His view of human potential is unburdened by anything other than equality – equality of potential for learning and growth regardless of gender, race, or socio-economic condition provided that nurturing conditions exist for schools and the socio-cultural community in which the school exists.” – Ivan J. K. Dahl, Professor Emeritus, University of North Dakota.
