I have been asked to share the following video (see below) with you.
Patrick F. Bassett has been the president of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS www.nais.org) since August 2001. NAIS, a membership organization for more than 1,800 independent (private) schools and associations of schools in the U.S. and abroad, is the "national voice for independent schools and the center for collective action on their behalf."
While all NAIS schools set high standards and emphasize values, they are wonderfully distinct from each other, so some of what you view may not exactly apply here but, for the most part, I believe it helps everyone who was educated at a different time understand how children learn today and summarizes key trends in independent school education.
It’s 27 minutes long but worth the time. Click here to watch the video. I hope you find it interesting and informative.
