Don't miss a SPECIAL SCHOLARSHIP Offer below!!!
There are moments when a parent starts wondering if there might be another way to do education and this conversation is for that exact moment. In this episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich talks with Jennifer Burns, founder and head of school at American Faith Academy and president of Excelara, about homeschooling, hybrid education, classical Christian learning, and why families do not have to figure it all out alone. Jennifer shares her own story of homeschooling before it was common, raising her boys through a hybrid model, and now helping families find a more flexible, parent-centered path. This is a deeply encouraging episode for anyone who feels overwhelmed by school decisions, unsure about the next step, or simply hungry for more time, more freedom, and a childhood that leaves room for family, faith, books, hard things, outdoor play, and the simple beauty of hopscotch on the sidewalk.
