Yvette and I got to do one of our favorite things over the weekend. We attended a homeschool conference in Moore, Oklahoma where we showed Schoolhouse Rocked and spoke on a few panels.

By What Measure? But is the public school system actually failing? From the consumer perspective…

“It’s a beautiful thing, the destruction of words.” – George Orwell, 1984 As is so often the case in politics, pundits and activists give friendly sounding names to hot-button political movements to mask the true character of these matters.

School choice programs take on many forms – public charter school programs and virtual charter programs, magnet schools, intra-district…

As I have been preparing for my interviews, I realized that the questions that will be asked and answered on these shows are the same questions that EVERY parent should be able to answer about education. And some of them aren’t that obvious. So…
