Today I unpublished the enrollment information for Emerson ALC. Our board has taken an honest evaluation of our financial projections, the amount of personal stress created by the attempted opening, and our […]

Ditto to what Tomis said, and know that you and your family are always welcome to visit us in Charlotte! I appreciate all the love, time, and energy you have dedicated to ALC in general. It takes guts to try anything new, and if there is one thing a person can tell within minutes of meeting you, is that you have guts. You’ve learned tons throughout the process of trying to launch Emerson, and can apply all that knowledge to future projects with ALC 🙂 I’m grateful for all you have done and all you will do for this network!
Sending you and your family love… and looking forward to the next time we meet IRL<3

I truly believe we learn the most about ourselves and this life when we are challenged ,and things don’t work out the way we hoped. I have also recently realized that when we constantly smooth the way for others and “rescue” them, we are depriving them of those lessons and personal growth, but that’s another story… I KNOW to the core of my being, that you and Jason will take the lessons from this experience and use them in ways you may not even be able to imagine right now. I wish you peace in your decision and am sending you both (((hugs))).

Jennifer wrote a new post, The Ten Types of Kids and How Self-Directed Learning Will Benefit Them, on the site Emerson ALC – Jen's Blog 6 years, 7 months ago
“Well, sure,” plenty of well-meaning people say to me, “letting a kid do whatever they want all day would work for some kids, but not my kid.” This is such an easy, and common, way to sidestep the difficult […] -
Jennifer wrote a new post, Ours Are Ready for College. . .Are Yours?, on the site Emerson ALC – Jen's Blog 6 years, 8 months ago
Many people ask me how a student who never had a formal class could possibly survive in college. Southern Methodist University has a great table in their Admissions material that aims to help incoming students […] -

Hi Jen,I know that a) you wrote this post two years ago, and b) it’s supposed to be humor. It’s making the rounds again though, thanks to the “Today Parenting Team,” and I just can’t hold back. Jen to Jen, […]

Jennifer wrote a new post, The Family Kanban Lives!, on the site Emerson ALC – Jen's Blog 6 years, 11 months ago
Sooo we have been meaning to getting around to putting together a family Kanban. We’ve been dawdling for about as long as it took to read that last sentence. A long time. In order to encourage the issue, I had […]

Jennifer wrote a new post, CMB Potluck, on the site Emerson ALC – Jen's Blog 6 years, 11 months ago
An idea I had today while driving to work:
What if all of the ALCs in the network had a quarterly Community Mastery Board “potluck” that was a Google Hangout or the like, where each ALC demonstrated something […]

Just came across this post, I really like the idea. Wish I had the energy to organize it 😀

Jennifer commented on the post, ABOUT THE SOCIAL MEDIA AGE OF 13, on the site Emerson ALC – Jen's Blog 6 years, 11 months ago
I’m not active personally, so I’ve found it hard to change that habit and be active on behalf of the school. The school’s Facebook page, for example, has had reposts of interesting articles, but very little original content, and I know that’s not terribly compelling. I feel like we are about to have a lot more to say though, to be honest.

We are getting into the nitty-gritty now of Emerson ALC. I learned more than I expected about HTML this weekend, but the site is thisclose to looking reputable. It’a a relief, but I have to admit, dear online […]

Are you referencing the managing of social media accounts for your school startup or trying to be more active on personal accounts?

The beginning of the blog is the middle of everything else for me.
The chicken-and-eggness of starting an Agile Learning Center is. . .weird. Jason and I have enough knowledge of entrepreneurial practices to […]
