School Sucks is a podcast, You Tube channel, and web community empowering parents and self-directed learners.
For 12 years we've promoted freedom in education, and we've called out covert indoctrination.
We discuss
* educational alternatives like homeschooling and unschooling,
* career freedom without college
* the principles of self-directed learning
* the strategies of critical thinking/information literacy
* and the rewards of self-knowledge/personal development
This is NOT a show about school reform.
The schools will not improve.
Higher education will not improve.
The politics around these institutions will not improve.
Only we can improve.
