Episode notes

The Four returns to tackle the topic of athletics in the Classical Christian School. There is actually quite a bit to discuss such as if we should even have athletics and to what benefit they may have in the proper scholar's upbringing.

The questions covered in this episode:

Question 1: Are Athletic programs worth it?

Question 2: Does the "athlete scholar" really exist?

Question 3: Would you hire a teacher that has an obvious and severe shortcoming in standards of excellence?

Question 4: How important is it that a head of school is classically educated?
