In previous years you may have traveled to take in several of the summer conferences that are part of our classical Christian schooling movement. This summer everyone&#8217;s staying home and attending conferences virtually. Many of you will have discovered Educational Renaissance for the first time through one of Jason&#8217;s talks at either the <a href=\"https:\/\/repairingtheruins.org\/\">ACCS Repairing the Ruins conference <\/a> last week or the <a href=\"https:\/\/sclconference.com\/\">Society for Classical Learning conference<\/a> this week. We welcome you summer conference attendees to explore the resources available here at Educational Renaissance.

Every year we try to enhance what we can offer to our audience. And to that end, we have already begun recording audio for the Educational Renaissance podcast.  We think this will enable us to reach more people with&nbsp;high quality content for teachers, school leaders and homeschool parents about education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We plan to continue writing in-depth articles every week and to publish books and ebooks on a regular basis. We are also exploring ways that we can provide training online through webinars and lessons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As social distancing requirements start to go away, you may want to have a more personalized training experience at your school. If you are interested in scheduling a speaking engagement, consultation or teacher training event, you can email us through our contact page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Highlights from the Past Year<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/educationalrenaissance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Mountain-climber.jpg?resize=768%2C528&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"The Road of Virtue\" width=\"192\" height=\"132\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest highlights for the academic year was the addition of Kolby Atchison.
