Winning Conversations Podcast

Education in America is changing—and families are searching for better options. The eyes of many parents were open widely during the pandemic, and they went searching for better options. Education choices for families are inherently unique and highly criticised by others, and we have at the table someone who truly understands. With years of teaching, leadership, and directing roles in both public and private schools, Courtney Hester brings valuable insight into the state of education in America, the rise of Christian education, and the most important factors to consider when choosing the right learning environment for your child. She is now the Founder of Rooted Christian Academy, which meets right here on Heritage property. We discuss how Rooted Christian Academy began, the shift parents experienced during the pandemic, and practical advice for navigating school choice, homeschooling, private schools, and faith-based education. Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or simply curious about the future of education, this episode offers encouragement, perspective, and tools to help you make confident decisions for your family. If you’ve ever asked: “What is the best school for my child?” “Should I homeschool?” or “How can I give my kids a strong faith foundation along with quality academics?” —this conversation is for you.
