School reform flies high with Huizenga
The Claremont Institute and XJet World hosted a full house as we welcomed J.C. Huizenga, founder of National Heritage Academies, for an executive briefing on educational excellence through entrepreneurship, Thursday, Nov. 29, at Centennial Airport south of Denver. Here's more on Huizenga's charter-school success story across the country... more on his company's first Colorado school at Reunion in Adams County... and more on the XJet concept, which founders Josh Stewart and Alex Cranberg say has taken wing on the same competitive market principles as parental choice in education.
Claremont president Brian Kennedy helped John Andrews keynote the event, as guests lunched in a gleaming hanger with Citation and Falcon jets parked a few steps from the tables.
Vanguard Forum coming up 9/7
Take conservative issues, a Biblical worldview, and a maddening moderator who gives both sides with equal plausibility. Add coffee, donuts, and 50 opinionated voices. Serve up in a DTC eatery at 7am on the first Friday of each month. This coming week, Sept. 7, is the next one, tackling Mormonism and politics. Email me for details if you want to come.
