Description
Book Synopsis
"As America approaches its 250th anniversary, questions about the purpose and future of education have never been more urgent. The Phoenix Principles offers a bold and unifying vision for how education can renew the American spirit and sustain a free and virtuous republic for generations to come. Rooted in the timeless ideals of liberty, truth, virtue, and citizenship, this volume lays out a coherent framework for education policy and practice--one that affirms the central role of families, upholds the transmission of cultural heritage, cultivates virtue and citizenship, and champions academic excellence. With essays from leading scholars, The Phoenix Principles is not merely a critique of the status quo; it is a call to reimagine education as the formative enterprise it was always meant to be. This book articulates seven foundational principles to guide our schools and inform policy: Parental Choice and Responsibility, Transparency and Accountability, Truth and Goodness, Cultural Transmission, Character Formation, Academic Excellence, and Citizenship. Together, they offer a roadmap for restoring purpose and coherence in K-12 education. Accessible, inspiring, and deeply grounded, The Phoenix Principles provides policymakers, educators, and citizens with the intellectual tools and moral clarity needed to shape an education system worthy of a free people--and to chart a course for the next 250 years of American self-government."Dimensions (Overall): 8.5 Inches (H) x 5.5 Inches (W)
