Do you know of master’s degree programs in classical education that are regionally accredited?
Mr. Andrew Kern,
I found Quiddity through my sister’s blog and am greatly enjoying it. I don’t know if you remember me, but I took your Latin class and studied Dante under your guidance with a homeschool class in Boise, ID. My mother, Joan Prize, was secretary at Foundations Academy at that time (1998-99). What a joy to discover your talent and expertise on the web! I am now married and have four children ages 5, 3, 2 and 1 month. I’m looking for a classical school in the south suburbs area of Chicago, IL. Is there any place near here you would recommend? I am currently homeschooling my oldest with a basic Kindergarten curriculum. Thank you!
Hannah
I remember you very well. You were a ballerina. Are you still dancing?
Tell me three or four of the south suburbs and I’ll see if I know of a classical school, but I would sincerely encourage you to continue to home school as long as you can. The minute they stop playing with the real living world and have to sit still for multiple hours without being read to is the minute their minds begin to stultify. They need to do it, I think, but not too soon.
I went to school in Oak Park, IL but I think that is west of Chicago. Look up the Greenhouse and see how far that is from where you live. I think it’s rather a way.
Can you believe ten years have passed? David, my first born, is married now. Did you meet him or Matt?
Stay in touch!
I’m looking to classically homeschool my children and need a good core curriculum. Can you please recommend one? They have previously attended the Geneva School of Manhattan and now we live in Tennessee.
Lori,
I’d need to know what you mean, as people use the term “core curriculum” in many ways. Also, how old are your children?
Did your children have the great privilege of studying under Buck Holler?
How do you like TN?
