Episode description

Classical education can feel unfamiliar to many parents, especially when they first walk into a school without computers, see students handwriting notes, or hear about things like the Paideia or a senior thesis. In this episode, Katy Mckinney breaks down the most common questions parents ask when touring Lafayette Academy and explains why classical education intentionally uses different tools, methods, and materials than modern schools.

From cultural literacy to real books, from paper-and-pencil note-taking to the habits that form deep thinking, Katy shares what makes classical education uniquely powerful at training the mind, cultivating virtue, and preparing students for a life of wisdom and purpose.
