Susan: What do you remember best about your experience in an Education for Life school? Keith: Fun! It was all fun. Of course, like any kid, I liked the field trips best. And all the personal interactions—the friendships with teachers and students. Susan: You came to Living Wisdom School from a public school, right? Keith: Yes, in fourth grade. I attended until I graduated from eighth-grade. Susan: What do you think were the advantages of going there? Keith: The small class size. It meant we got lots of individual attention. I remember the caring of the teachers and the encouragement to be who you are. Susan: Was high school difficult after our schools? Keith: No, I graduated with a 4.0. Susan: Did you notice any difference between yourself and other kids you met in high school or college that you attribute to our school? Keith: Oh, yeah. I feel I've really found myself—mentally, spiritually, and career-wise. And I feel like I did it at a young age compared to most.
