From Unschool to School to Unschool: A Conversation with Nikiah Childs

Nikiah Childs grew up in elementary school, unschooled for 6 years, went back to a performance arts charter school, and then left school again to unschool her senior year. Now 23 and graduating from college, Nikiah and I discuss: - the motivations behind her transitions - pursuing her passion for dance - her fear of having fallen behind in math due to unschooling - the pros and cons of high school - how adults treat unschoolers versus high schoolers - the surprising awesomeness of community college * * * Love the podcast?
