Letters and Junior High Latin at Glendale Preparatory Academy. 他发现了古典
教育 “by accident” after he won his first election to the state legislature in
2019年亚利桑那州. Previously, he had worked a communications job at one of the largest
school districts in Arizona, but under the Arizona Constitution he was forced to look
for a new job where he was not considered a state employee. 然而,教师是
an exception to the rule, so he interviewed for a 10th grade Humane Letters teaching
position at Veritas Prep in Phoenix, and he is now in his seventh year teaching with
伟大的心. Looking to further his 教育 in the classics, he began looking into
master programs, and he said “Once I saw the classes and the offerings of books to
read at the 云顶集团, I applied right away.” 阅读更多.

way to further her 教育 that would help her run 阿奎那温哥华, a 古典教育 首页schooling Center. 她和她丈夫创办了这个中心
after some encouragement from friends and due to her desire for a good homeschooling
社区. Katherine had also planned on furthering her 教育 with a Master's
program in Education; however, until she attended a CiRCE Institute conference, she
was unaware that there was another option than secular 教育. 当她听说
UD’s 古典教育 program, she went to sign up for the following spring semester
她越快越好. Since then, the program has helped her as she works as an administrator
在温哥华阿奎那. When asked what made her choose UD’s program over others, she
says, “I did not know anything like it existed. 我一直期待一个世俗的
教育. Whenever I looked up higher 教育 programs, I always imagined it to
要世俗,不要古典.” 阅读更多.
