Episode Description

In this episode of The InFormed Parent Podcast, host Suzanne Phillips is joined by Dr. Hutz Hertzberg and Jennifer Burns of Turning Point Education to explore the rising movement of classical education and why it's gaining momentum among parents, homeschoolers, and schools across the nation.

For many parents, education is simply about curriculum and outcomes. But beneath every method lies a philosophy of education—Montessori, Charlotte Mason, Classical, and more—that shapes not just what students learn but how they think and live.

Together, Hutz and Jennifer share their rich backgrounds in Christian education and explain how classical education, rooted in virtue and wisdom, is equipping students to lead with clarity, confidence, and truth. Whether you're a parent, educator, or school leader, this episode will inspire you to see education through a new lens—and offer practical next steps to get involved.

Episode Highlights:

✔️ Why education is more than just curriculum—it's about philosophy

✔️ An overview of classical education and how it works in practice

✔️ The mission of Turning Point Education and who it serves

✔️ How hybrid schools and homeschool programs are shaping a new model for families

✔️ Why restoring virtuous education is so critical in today's cultural moment

✔️ What trends are emerging in K-12 and higher education
