Daniel Greenberg
"But, neither of these educational scenarios worked for us, so when we started a family, we wanted a different school for our children. And the other founders felt the same way."

Family

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"We've been doing this here since 1968, so we have been identified as an example of a free, democratic school, and many professors want to expose their students to our philosophy."

Education

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"Quite a few, actually, are involved in education. They have had the same experience Hanna and I had: when they started having their own kids, they didn't want them to have a poor educational experience; they wanted them to enjoy school."

Experience

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"So, I see technology as a Trojan Horse: It looks like a wonderful thing, but they are going to regret introducing it into the schools because it simply can't be controlled."

Technology

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"You can't make someone learn something - you really can't teach someone something - they have to want to learn it. And if they want to learn, they will."

Want

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"But, if you observe children learning in their first few years of life, you can see that they can and do learn on their own - we leave them alone to crawl, walk, talk, and gain control over their bodies. It happens without much help from parents."

Life

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"Whenever culture has gone through a radical change, as ours has - from industrial age to information age - there are people who will deny that things have changed; they resist it and refuse to change."

Age

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"Educators are still spending way too much time trying to control what kids learn, bending the content to their own purposes, hoping beyond hope to change - by using technology - but not change too much."

Change

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"I'll tell you what the real problem is: These people are working under the assumption that they know better about what is good for kids, what kids need to learn to get ahead in this world."

People

Quote_1.png
Daniel Greenberg
"I think people with open minds will observe the way we do things and realize that our goal is to have successful, happy, productive adults, and they will take our ideas and implement them elsewhere for their own children."
