This Saturday come out to contemplate and discuss cultivating goodness in the 6 dimensions of school life: environment, community, governance, curriculum, pedagogy, and assessment. We will also discuss how to cultivate goodness through classical arts of learning: the seven liberating arts, commonplacing, narration, etc.

Let's discuss this quote and share ideas on bringing goodness into our children's educations and hearts.

"My point is not that everyone must have a classical education, but that classical education is an education that allows one to order his life to the best and highest goods, because it gives one the principles in the light of which such an order is possible." Laura Berquist
