🎙 Hosted by Jared Mlynczyk — founder of ChristianEdLeadership.com, Christian educator, and school leader.

In Part II of Rethinking Academics in Christian Schools, Jared goes deeper — not into methods yet, but into mindsets.

Before we redesign schedules, grading systems, or instructional strategies, we must confront the assumptions that have shaped classrooms for decades:

✅ Points ≠ learning
✅ Curriculum pacing ≠ mastery
✅ Readiness varies widely
✅ Teaching ≠ presenting
✅ Yesterday’s model doesn’t fit today’s students

Jared shares a candid story from his early teaching days — and why his Algebra I “pre-test/post-test” cycle revealed a deeper truth: delivering content is not the same as ensuring students learn.

Christian schools must anchor themselves in biblical formation and academic clarity. Learning must be the goal, not coverage.

Listen now, and prepare for Part III where we move into practical steps for rethinking how instruction, assessment, and time are structured in Christian classrooms.
