Description

What would happen if every child was able to receive an education tailor made for their strengths and weaknesses? What would happen if every child was treated as an individual and not just a data entry on a test result spreadsheet? Education in America is now at risk more than at any other time in our history. With the complete abandonment of the long-proven principles of individualization and mastery learning, our students are being forced into a one-size-fits-all academic program to satisfy national standards while utterly disregarding each child's specific academic and emotional needs. One needs to look no further than the history of early American schools as well as the unchanging instructional principles employed by Jesus to understand not only how we should teach, but more importantly, how students truly learn. When unchanging Biblical truths are coupled with proven educational values, life-giving transformation can occur for every student. If educators choose to accept and implement the irrefutable evidence contained within these pages, an unquenchable fire for true educational reform will surely be ignited. Jason Yarbrough has over 25 years of educational experience. He is a teacher, principal, executive pastor, church planter and avid proponent of widespread educational reform. Having earned his Masters Degree in school administration from Lousiana Baptist University, Jason is passionate about seeing every student reach their full potential by being instilled with the confidence of a positive learning experience that is well-grounded in individualization, mastery learning and timeless Biblical principles. Jason has been married to his wife, Susan, since 1990, and currently serves as Principal of Fairfield Christian School and Executive Pastor of Real Life Church. They have three children and reside in Sacramento, CA.
