RE: Unschooling Blog, Vol. 41: Volunteering at the Free School, Day 1 - Introductions.
That's amazing.
My husband and I were looking at schools in the area that aren't traditional indoctrination centers lol we found mostly high schools but no elementary schools that are alternative enough to teach in a better way.
We decided that if there are no elementary schools that are suitable for our future child's needs, then we will home school and then send that kid to one of those alternative free school style of high schools. They're private, but they center on learning, they have smaller classes, more one on one learning, and in sec 3 the kids have few hours of learning in class and go out and do various skills, learn new skills, out in the field to find what they want to do in life. Just a few hours of class work is much better than the current traditional system.
I think the kids in your care will have a lot of fun learning what you have to teach them.
Kudos to you and your husband. It's parents like you that will change the world.
I think your child will thank you for being so thoughtful, in the end, as well.
Cheers!
Thank you. We'll do our best.
