There Is No Neutral - The Conversation That Changes Our View of Education
My dad, Fred Evans, does not wake up one morning planning to start a school.
In fact, when he comes home in October 2024 and announces that we are launching a classical Christian academy in Stanley, the rest of us look at him with some shock. We know zero about starting a school. We are business leaders, not educators. We know families are interested in educational options. That does not mean we are ready to build one.
Everything changes because of a lunch conversation.
Parents, a Headmaster’s Perspective on Classical Christian Education
When we hosted one of our CCA Vision Nights, we were honored to welcome Paul Fisher as a guest speaker. Paul is the Headmaster of Capstone Classical Academy, serves in an advisory role with the Society for Classical Learning, and is also a trusted friend and fellow traveler in the classical Christian education movement.
From Awareness to Action: How Parents and Grandparents Can Respond Together
When I finished watching The Mis-Education of America, I did not feel shocked. I felt confirmed. What I saw in the series matched conversations I’m having with both parents and grandparents right now. Parents are concerned.
Grandparents are deeply troubled. Schools today feel radically different from the education they experienced. It feels like something important has been lost.
Why Every Parent and Grandparent Should Watch The Miseducation of America
For many families today, something about education feels unsettled. Parents sense it. Grandparents feel it deeply. School does not look like it once did. The goals feel different. The lessons sound unfamiliar.
Many parents are concerned, but grandparents are often shocked. What they see happening in schools feels nothing like the education they remember. I hear this often from grandparents. They look at what their grandchildren are learning and say, “This is not the school I knew.”
Parents, a Place Where Your Child Can Love Learning Again
Is Your Child Being Challenged or Just Passed Along?
When you live in a small town, choosing a school can feel like a big decision. It shapes your family’s daily schedule. It touches your values, your finances, and your hopes for your child’s future. It also affects how your child feels about learning and belonging.
YEAR OF CELEBRATION AND REDEDICATION, 2026
Two and a half centuries ago, on July 4, 1776, thousands of years’ worth of wisdom, philosophy, and culture were brought together in Philadelphia where delegates to the Second Continental Congress gathered to declare the birth of a new nation — “conceived in Liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal” — and, in so doing, launched the single greatest force for goodness, justice, prosperity, and human flourishing the world has ever known.
Teacher, Before You Say Yes, It’s Important to Know What We’re Not
If you’re a teacher exploring Christian Crossroads Academy (CCA), you’re likely not just looking for a new position—you’re discerning a new alignment.
Many excellent educators are quietly asking hard questions:
Why does teaching feel so fragmented? Why do my values feel misaligned with my workplace? Why does it feel harder to teach the way I know children actually learn?
Save the Humanities from the Slop
The rise of AI, the ubiquity of cheap and accessible entertainment, the power of social media, and the progressive, secular biases of many educators have caused some Christians to question whether there’s any good in studying the humanities today.
More Than a Model: A Mission That Calls Teachers to Lead
I care deeply about leadership and education. I earned a master’s degree in Transformational Leadership because I believe leaders shape the future. When a leader lives with purpose, humility, and honesty, they produce lasting positive results. My passion for building leaders inspired me to write "Millennials Matter: Proven Strategies for Building Your Next-Gen Leader." I wanted to help others see how investing in young people makes a difference for families, businesses, and communities.
10 Steps for Teachers to Consider: “Maybe You Don’t Need to Quit Teaching…”
If you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, or quietly counting the days until summer, I want you to know: you’re not alone.
So many teachers still love kids and still care deeply—but they feel worn down by constant pressure, endless demands, and the feeling that teaching has become unsustainable.
Here’s the gentle truth: Burnout doesn’t mean you’re weak. It often means you’ve been carrying too much for too long.
