The State of State Schools podcast explores some of the most important headlines in education—from a Christian perspective. The goal is to help keep teachers, parents, and families up-to-speed on what's going on in public schools, private schools, and home education. John Stamper is a former homeschooler, former public school teacher, and author of the books "Conflicted: Pulling Back the Curtain on Public Education" and "Courage to Stand: Profiles of Enduring Faith." His homeschool background, coupled with his experience teaching in the nation’s third largest public school system, provide a unique perspective on education that parents and teachers will want to hear.
