Presented at:
ABSTRACT:
We know that our schools spread a daily feast of classical, God glorifying education. Are there any people in your city missing from the table? Come and hear how an emerging movement of schools are welcoming the children of urban poor families to “taste and see”. How could your school get in on the surprising joy of spreading the banquet of classical, Christ-centered education to those who could never imagine they were welcome at the table?
