Heidi St. John - Public School Exodus, Part 2

“I can’t afford to homeschool.” “I don’t have what it takes.” “I’m not patient enough.” “My kids won’t be socialized.” “My kids are called to be salt & light.” “The public schools in our area are excellent.”

These are the reasons we often hear why parents choose to keep their kids in public school. But what’s really going on in the classrooms, behind closed doors, and on the playground? What are our children really being exposed to and is it happening in YOUR neighborhood?

Join Yvette Hampton, Aby Rinella, and Heidi St. John as they tackle the important topic of public schools and why we need to get our kids out NOW!

Book Lovers, FORMA, from the CiRCE Institute contemplates ancient ideas for contemporary people, both online and in print. Whether we’re reviewing a new mystery novel, sharing new original poetry, or publishing critical essays, we’re trying to determine what classical thought can offer modern mankind. We’re looking back, even if the past seems backward. We publish original essays, reviews, interviews, and poetry. And we’re hunting miscellany, seeking out the sorts of things that book-lovers love.

The Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) equips teachers and teaching parents with methods and materials which will aid them in training their students to become confident and competent communicators and thinkers. Using the Structure and Style™ writing method, IEW will give you the ability to fill young minds with language-building skills, laying the groundwork for a lifetime of excellent writing.
