Explain Classical Christian education to a
modern audience
In 2005, David Goodwin, the headmaster of Foundations Academy in
Boise, Idaho, created this 20 page, full-color booklet to explain
classical Christian education to an uninitiated audience. He used
his experience in the corporate marketing world to develop a piece that
was convincing and interesting. The booklet is designed so that it
can be read in pieces with heavy use of graphics, like a magazine.
Each page is self-contained. No articles span more than 2 pages.
This makes it a resource that gets used.
Over 70 classical Christian schools are now using this booklet in
prospective parent packets, with current parents, and in capital
campaigns to communicate the essence of classical Christian education.
Over 20,000 copies are in circulation. Startup schools and
established schools find that their parents are more committed when they
understand the difference between classical and modern education.
