Summary


From day one to day 3200, twenty years in a classical, collaborative school have made for an incredible journey!

Join me as I trace the most pressing matters of those early and middle years, which included our need to define classical, parent burn-out and homework loads, clarifying curriculum, building community, and training teachers. Then, we’ll reflect on the challenges of the most recent years: the GroupMe culture, facing facts, and cultivating student loves. Join me for a practical, honest account of mountains and valleys traversed in this unique model.
