Send us a text

As a parent, choosing the right school for your child can feel overwhelming, especially in today’s world where public schools, Christian schools, classical models, micro-schools, and homeschooling are all on the table. But for Christian families, the decision isn’t just about academics or convenience, it’s about faith, values, safety, and long-term impact.
In this episode of The Way of Valor, Angie Taylor unpacks the real questions Christian parents are wrestling with:

• Can my child truly know Jesus in this school environment?
• Will they be safe and supported by teachers and administrators who share my values?
• Am I underestimating the hidden costs of a “free” public school education?
• What are the strengths and weaknesses of Christian schools, classical schools, and micro-schools?
• How can homeschool parents thrive with the right support and community?

With decades of experience as both a public school teacher and a Christian school leader, Angie shares candid insights about the educational landscape, what’s at stake, what parents should be asking, and how to align your child’s education with your family’s biblical worldview.
If you’re a parent weighing your school options, this conversation will help you look beyond the headlines and dig into the deeper heart-level questions that matter most.
