Saving America One Child at a Time
Join Katy McKinney, “Lady K”, the Head of School at Lafayette Academy: A Classical School for an inspiring podcast series dedicated to Saving America through the excellent education of our children. At Lafayette Academy: A Classical School, we are committed to Saving America through the right education of our children, fostering a rigorous, content-rich, classical liberal arts program that cultivates both academic excellence and virtuous character.
Our mission is to develop the intellectual and personal habits of each student, preparing them to lead responsible, virtuous, and productive lives. We believe in Saving America 🇺🇸 one child at a time by equipping students to become contributors and leaders in their homes, communities, businesses, and government. Through a curriculum rooted in the principles of our Founding Documents, we nurture intelligent and virtuous American citizens who understand and live by the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, endowed by our Creator.
Each episode explores how Lafayette Academy: A Classical School's vision shapes students into statesmen, entrepreneurs, and servant-leaders dedicated to God, country, community, and family. Tune in to discover how we forge character, inspire service, and build a foundation for a free, just, and happy society—one student at a time.
