I’m glad to share that I’ve begun the task of sharing on Substack what I’ve learned in my 18 years in Catholic education and evangelization. Please consider sharing and subscribing! I’m calling it “CoCrucified” which I explain in this post. open.substack.com/pub/cocrucifie…

Daniel Buck, “Youngest Old Man in Ed Reform”
Harvard circa 1700s: "No student shall be admitted unless they can translate Greek and Latin authors such as Tully, Virgil, The New-Testament, & Xenophon." Harvard circa 2026: "We can't assign whole novels anymore."

The difference between The Golden Thread and the garbage anti-Western “social studies” textbooks used in most schools is the difference between a fine Italian steak and McDonald’s new Big Arch. Give the kiddos steak 🥩

Moral virtues are firm attitudes, stable dispositions, habitual perfections of intellect and will. They incline us to act well, so that our moral actions are good. But they also order our passions and make possible ease, self-mastery, and joy in leading a morally good life.

Thinking about how in the Spanish version of the Palm Sunday Gospel reading, Jesus sends the disciples to town to get him a burrito and tells them that if anyone questions them they should just say, "The Master has need of it."

We’re studying figures of speech in Rhetoric as my sophomores prepare to use them in their own speech writing. We’re learning eloquence and the importance of beauty in all that we create together. It’s a magnificent art!

The main objection I hear to classical education is that it is elitist. It is a valid objection because it is just better, and a BMW is better than a Pinto, sorry if that is offensive. If you object to things because they are better you are still living in the matrix.

Contemporary Americans often don’t want to consider underlying philosophies, we would be silly to think we have the cure to an illness we don’t understand. One such underlying cause is the philosophical basis of modern, progressive education itself, and its founder: John Dewey.

For more than 95% of the history of education, letter grades did not exist. The familiar A, B, and C system emerged during the Industrial Revolution. We borrowed it from the meat-packing industry’s method of sorting products. It is time to rethink our obsession with grades and get back to the serious work of forming young minds and hearts to love, truth, goodness, and beauty.
