Ask Lindsay Hoyt what it takes to start a school and she’ll tell you — the good, the bad, the intensities and the joys. (and everything else!) She's not afraid. And she's got quite a story to share.

Making a difference — for her own kids, but also for all children — was her calling. And she stopped at nothing. Her vision — a tuition-free, classical education for children providing a school for deep learning and an option that didn’t exist became a reality in 2020. In this first episode of our two-part series, Lindsay shares the start, laying the foundation, the challenges, and the miracles that brought Cornerstone Classical Academy into existence.

In this conversation you’ll hear:

• How to start a school
• Why a classical education matters
• What makes a classical education distinct from other types of education
• What results from hard work, commitment and vision
• How miracles happen — do the work. Expect a miracle.
