  • Innovate Where It Counts: A Smarter Path for ESAs
    Real education innovation is about how schools operate, not just what they teach. A case for using Education Savings Accounts to catalyze better tools and models — while guarding against new regulatory barriers and tuition inflation. RealClearEducation.
  • National School Choice Week is here. Why choice isn't enough
    School choice alone falls short without a clear educational philosophy. Before choosing a school, parents must decide what values and virtues they want it to cultivate — because education forms character, it doesn't merely transfer information. The Christian Post.
  • A tool for good, if used wisely
    AI won't save education, and used wisely it won't ruin it either. What determines its impact is something older than any technology: the character of the people who wield it and the purpose for which we educate our children. WORLD Opinions.
