What I actually want to do is throw @stripe Atlas, @LambdaSchool & Sudbury Valley into a blender, bottle it, and send to every parent or teacher who’s tired of watching bright, sensitive children & teens fall off the assembly line and be left where they fall until they age out

I bought the Sudbury school starter kit, which consists of dozens of books, CDs, *printed collections of emails* & seemingly random files. Small portion pictured here. This all now lives in stacks on the shelf above my guinea pigs. I want this to be Atlas-ified & Lambda deliveredpic.twitter.com/gtWRKI5M07

I cannot read a giant binder of printed email threads from 2002. I just can't do it. I'm not that strong.

I have a hard time believing this is *that* hard. Bring some kids together somewhere with a bunch of computers, books, & cool stuff to do, provide enough adult supervision to help with particularly tricky stuff & prevent fingers from getting burnt off, and let them have at it!

Replying to @sonyasupposedly @sonyaellenmann
From what I've read, a lot of the kids that go to the original Sudbury school are there in part due to behavioral issues in public schools... I'm sure it doesn't work for everyone, but their disciplinary system is very cool:https://sudburybeach.wordpress.com/2016/01/25/sudbury-and-discipline/ …

For sure. It might not work well for a broader population, but it’s an experiment worth running on a much larger scale than we have now! (With lots of variations on structure, different filters on admission, etc.)
