Education Empowerment

Teenagers want to study something meaningful. But what is meaningful to one is boring to another. We can change the way school looks for teenagers, but we need to trust parents and to trust students in deciding what, where, when, and how fast to learn.

Javonne Tanner, a teacher, started her own school. So did Renae Zentz, Heather Poll, and many other teachers across the state. And you can too!

Children, especially young children, learn through play. But focusing on standardized assessments limits play in schools.

Most learning happens outside of school. So if you feel that your child isn’t learning or doesn’t fit into the formal classroom, remember — you have options.
