Dan Scoggin and Toyin Atolagbe of Great Hearts: Charter School Network Launches New Christian Schools to Expand Kingdom Impact

The return of "What About?" Wednesdays! Text us your questions for apologist and pastor Robby Lashua!Great Hearts America is a thriving network of publicly-funded charter schools, encompassing tens-of-thousands of students in Arizona, Texas, and Louisiana.  They are rooted in what is popularly termed "Classical" education and their approach to learning and formation are very traditional.  By all accounts, they have been very successful.But, now the game has changed.  Nationally, as the wheels (sadly and unnecessarily) come off public schools, school choice initiatives are blossoming.  Nowhere is there more true than in Arizona where families can utilize state tuition tax credit  scholarships and state-funded empowerment scholarship accounts.  The net effect of this has been that the demand for Christian education has gone through the roof and it's never been more affordable.In response, Great Hearts' founder, Dr. Dan Scoggins, has launched Great Hearts Christos, a new network of Great Hearts Christian schools.Today, we have the opportunity to hear directly from Dan in terms of his vision for the Christos initiative.  As well, we'll talk with Dr. Toyin Atolagbe, the head of school for the first two Great Hearts Christos locations and discover the Great Hearts approach to student spiritual formation.Fore more information on Great Hearts America, please follow this link.To learn about Great Hearts Christos, please click here."Kingdom Culture Conversations" is a podcast created through Frameworks, a Biblical worldview initiative of Northwest Christian School.For more information on Frameworks, please visit:  https://frameworks.ncsaz.org/For more information on Northwest Christian School, visit:  https://www.ncsaz.org/To reach out to Geoff Brown, please email [email protected] or you can reach him by cell phone:  (623)225-5573.
