WHAT SCHOOL
IS THE RIGHT CHOICE
FOR YOU?

Jaime writes in her Illustrated Journal
about all school models in Minnesota.

THIS LITTLE SCHOOL+HOUSE

EDITION: South Washington County

Standing on the edge between two worlds of schooling – public and non-public – is an interesting place to be. It is here on the fringe that Jaime observes worldviews collide without their ever even meeting face-to-face. Order and Chaos dance harmoniously unaware that their song is of old, one and the same, yet each to find his end in stark contrast. While the school named “Order” dances in the light of day, the school named “Chaos” dances in the dark of night. Both Order and Chaos find their place in the Book of Books, where they rarely if ever meet in the middle.

The Mission of JAiME for SCHOOLS is to inspire curiosity, to encourage observation and to open doors of discovery in the field of education.

The Abstract Fringe

I’d like to introduce you to life on the edge, the fringe, or that which can only be understood from the outside looking in. The fringe typically functions as a space on the edge of the world for the abnormal to be normal. It is a space where distortion, surrealism and exaggeration is expected. Think of the skin of a pineapple or the bark of a tree. It is rough to the touch and difficult to penetrate. But once you get through the tough outer layer, its center becomes sort and uniform. This visual pattern carries out through all of creation and exists in sight, sound, taste, touch, feel, AND spirit. Borders and boundaries are a natural part of life. Barriers are meant to protect us. We have locks on the doors to our house, and we don’t give the key to just anyone. Robbers are not welcome inside my home, and neither is spiritual deception welcome in my child’s education. Parents generally do not give ALL PEOPLE free access to the core of their family (ie. child), and individuals certainly do not WELCOME ALL into the core of their being.

Pit Of Fake SUCCESS

You may be surprised to learn that experts of the state now consider “readiness” to be racist because that might make an unready child feel excluded. Every learner is now to be labeled “successful” when entering kindergarten, and therefore it is incumbent upon the teacher to be ready for the unready child. According to MDE, this is a more inclusive approach and corrects the wrongs of their previous (racist) ways. Enter the fake fortress of mass schooling built upon the back of fake success… By worldly standards, success is achieved through the accumulation of money, power and fame. In this way, we might think of success with a capital “S” because it behaves like a human with a head, heart and hands. In this age of mass production and consumption, Success takes on the shape of a giant – a Goliath of sorts. Worldly Success is quite different from Spiritual Success, and the story of David and Goliath is the perfect analogy (1 Samuel 17). Real Success is alive with growth and built-in sustainability while Fake Success dies by the metal of his own sword.

This Little SCHOOL+HOUSE

In 2020, the Governor’s Education Roundtable put together A Roadmap for Transformational Change in Minnesota Education that says, “We need to mobilize all of us – not just teachers and students – to nurture assets and DISMANTLE BARRIERS so every student and their family has all Minnesotans supporting their academic and personal growth.” On the other hand, Kelly Smith, Founder of Prenda, says his micro-schools are “BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS that will make it easier for people to start their own schools.” Meanwhile, One Stone, a school with no teachers, no tests and no grades, says they are “BREAKING DOWN the one-size-fits-all nature of a conventional classroom.” As you can see, there are a lot of proverbial BARRIERS BEING BROKEN DOWN these days, and they appear to be at war with one another. G.K. Chesterton said, “Whenever you remove any fence, always pause long enough to ask why it was put there in the first place.” Wise advice from a wise man. My question is, which SCHOOL+HOUSE is able to BUILD UP? Anyone can break down in a world ruled by the laws of gravity. Good or evil, real or fake – anyone can destroy – but only REAL things can grow up under this sun … only REAL is granted authority to build upward … only REAL has the soft heart needed for love … only REAL is able to truly hear His story (history) spoken … and only REAL is able to truly see the Word written into the fabric of creation. “This Little School+House” and the “Borders and Boundaries” series of 2025 will explore “What is education, actually?”
