Another History Quiz
Most of America’s Founding Fathers, Presidents, Senators, Congressional Representatives, Attorney Generals and Judges…Learned to read and ‘rite and do ‘rithmetic, in the same institution of learning. Yes, most of our nation’s leaders from day one (sometime in the 1700’s) until 2006 learned the necessary skills that would be needed to successfully lead this Great Experiment in Democracy, in the same School. The actual number is so impressive; I wonder why no one has suggested building a monument to this school?
No, it wasn’t Yale, Harvard, Oxford or Princeton, but I’m sure if you think hard enough you’ll figure it out. Here is a hint…… It is the same school that every President was born in until Jimmy Carter was born in 1926.
Still puzzled? Why am I not surprised? Presidents being born and schooled in the same institution?
It is a school that was almost boarded up and forgotten by time, but a few concerned people worked hard to keep this school standing, and it is thriving today in the United States of America.
It is of course THE HOME SCHOOL. Long before even the one room school houses, there were home schools, you know, way back in the dark ages when mothers loved their children enough to teach them how to be human.
