  • I mean, if your reading at an 11th grade level while in 5th grade, why should you be forced to stay in a 5th grade level class? It becomes boring and students stop applying themselves. I was reading things in 5th grade that most of my peers would have never read. I would destroy an 600+ page book in a week. I understand that there are foundations that need to be built, but having a one size fits all method of education I worry does more harm than good. I honestly feel that a school of this style would have allowed me to truly excel, instead…I never even got to really apply myself. I got through school fine, but it just felt like a waste of time. I almost didn’t even go to college - felt like it was going to be a waste of time. It wasn’t until I actually got into college that I realized education gives you back what you put into it…It was the first time I was ever truly challenged, and good lord that woke me up.


  • This just means I get to start my The Satanic Academy for Witchcraft. Our homeroom has us learn the Tenets from the Satanic Temple. The classes are dynamic, so if you excel in mathematics, your assigned to an advancement class that eventually moves you up to the next level. You don’t automatically make it to the next class either, it’s dependent on a grades, efficiency, and quality of your work - this drives students to apply themselves rather than just ride it out. The more advanced classes have more dynamic projects that are practical and useful. There is no “busy work”, and classes tend to apply an open learning / study portion to the class as well. If your not applying yourself, you’ll be downgraded or removed from your classes to make room for others. It’s competitive, but practical, affordable, and efficient.

    The school has a heavy focus on critical reasoning (ethics and philosophy), mathematics, science, and history.
