Im not selling anything. I am trying to talk with others who are
familiar with the experience in order to learn more about it. Also
anyone interested inattending a school like this could learn from me.
AGAIN I AM NOT SELLING ANYTHING. I am mearly trying to connect with
other like minded people. Sorry for any confusion.

I liked his post much better than this one.
If I had an only child who was wanting to travel, I'd seriously consider a
year at a free school. There used to be one in southern Colorado, and it
sounded glorious. A friend of mine went there. John Holt taught there a while.

I agree. When I saw the comments below I actually went to check to see how
long this person had been on the list.
Matt posted a few weeks ago wanting the work with unschoolers. Since then he
has offered his services for portfolios in Maine (which we need I might add).
I dont know the man but I know he doesn't much deserve the response he
received. Sudbury schools have been discussed on this list many times.
Do I think that we should promote all unschoolers going to these schools? No,
but I do think it is knowledge that we all would have knowing the school may
exist. Someday someone may be seeking a Sudbury school for their extenuating
circumstances and we would know there may be another in New England.
From what I understood from an email I have sent to him the school would
house the parent/s also.
Knowledge is good, guessing ones motives and blasting him on such a list with
lack of information is sad to me. He may not have all the answers but he
seems to be offering an alternative for those who may choose a regular school. I
too with one child or a different lifestyle may seriously consider a free
school also.

That changes things a lot too! I didn't imagine that that would be
the case, since in my experience Sudburies don't tend to welcome
parents to come to the school to hang out with their kids a lot.
They want kids to learn to separate from their parents.

I agree. I put the worst poster on moderation, and deleted one message which
was tacky (from someone who is already on moderated status).
If the list owners hadn't wanted it on there it wouldn't have been, because
that post was in the "to be approved" pile, and was sent through to the list.
So people who can't think of something nice to say should maybe consider not
saying anything at all, particularly in the case of people who didn't read the
original post carefully or who didn't know a "Sudbury" from a military
academy.
"HAHAHAHA" isn't appropriate behavior.

Parents were not a part of the initial thought of any boarding possibility. But
we are certainly open to any suggestions. We would ENCOURAGE the
parents to donate some time at the school and use their own talents. THis
could be a possible way of working off tuition!

Hi, everyone! I'm new here. I'm not exactly sure how long I've
been "lurking around" this site. I'm interested in a few things that
are being discussed, so I'm going to take my chances and dive in.
Considering the conversations of late, I figure I'm safe. I'm not
sure what I'm supposed to learn about the accepted behavior on the
list, but I'm sure that wasn't it. :)
I'll tell you a little about myself. I don't consider myself an
unschooler by definition. I am more interested in the concept and
would like to learn more about it. A fellow home schooling friend of
20+ years discovered your group and forwarded it to me. That
explains how I ended up here.
I am the mother in a combined family of seven children. It's a long
story, but I home school the youngest, Adrian. He will be 10 next
month. Our other children are as follows: Tabitha, 18; Amy, 17.5;
Tammi and Tracey, 16; Amie, 14 in March; and Andrew, 12. I am
biological mother to Amy and Adrian. If you do the math, you will
see that there is about 8 years between them. By the time I got into
home schooling, he was the only one left to focus on. The rest of
the kids are not mine biologically, and I never found a loop hole to
allow it legally. At this point it's irrelevant since four of them
will graduate in the next year and a half.
I'm active in two local home school groups and belong to two more. I
enjoy the freedom of home schooling and am SO happy that it found
me. I look forward to picking your brains and having pleasant
conversations with you all. I don't have much of a clue about any of
this. So, I hope this is a place where I will be able to ask
questions and learn from them.
I look forward to conversing with you all...

I am assuming the tacky poster listed above was me. Sorry. However,
I was on a committee here in Atlanta about 6 years ago that was
trying to put together a Sudbury day school. One of the reasons
we were trying to do it was because of what people here have
mentioned: having a place their unschoolers could go and meet other
unschoolers in a setting that was not traditional school.
Atlanta has a very nice climate, not the extremes of Maine. There
was no way we could make it work for less than about 5 grand per year
and this was 1998. The group had to look at location, building a
structure or finding an appropriate existing one. Salaries for the
facilitators, mortgage or rent payments, paying heating and air,
field trips, equipment, supplies, books, pcs etc....) Good luck, but
2 grand for a boarding school where you are going to throw meals into
the mix? That is why I was shocked by Matt's post. I have lived the
reality of trying to make happen what hopefully he will. However,
when the group of people I was working with started to see what it
was really going to cost, then we realized we were only going to get
a certain type of student "rich hippy types that are all about
appearances in that they are so avant garde and nonconformist that
there kids go to a Sudbury school"(not that there is anything wrong
with that to quote Jerry Seinfeld) but that was not what we were
after. And honestly, they were the only kind of people we found were
willing to invest in it. Then we would have had to have fundraisers
for scholarships.
It is not easy putting these things together. So, it may have been
tacky, but it's not like I haven't "been there". I have since worked
on trying to get a kind of Community Learning Center together for
homeschoolers, but that too is really expensive.

Thanks for the reply. 2000 a year IS a possibility because of these reasons. 1.I
will be buying a large chunck of land here in Maine and donating a piece of it
for the school, there fore no rent. 2. The building will be done mainly by us
from mostly materials on the land therefore GREATLY reducing the cost but
making the process of opening longer. Therefore no paying for a building. 3.
The site will use renewable energy sources and there GREATLY reducing
any bills. The 2000 a year will be for the day students. Boarding will be extra.
We will also utilize the families participation in order to reduce the need of a
paid staff. With all these factors in place we can make this work with a
potential 7-8 first year students.

Maine is less expensive than a city. Rents for a home are 900-1200 and
apartment rentals are 550. to over a 1000 depending on size and location.
As to the weather our weather is the same as others along the north of the US
just a couple days later. Snow comes mostly in Feb and March the last few
years. Some in December but it doesn't stay.
The summers are humid at times but the waters are all around to make it all
worth while.
Many commute from Maine to Boston if the pay is worthwhile. We prefer to stay
away from the city and my husband still makes enough to keep the house going.
Maine is also a very nice place to vacation.

There was a school an aquaintenance of mine put her kids in. It was a

I'd like to know more on the one you are talking about here. There is one in
Seattle but it is really expensive if you ask me.

I wish I could offer more info. The lady was a friend only through one of
the homeschooling groups I belonged to. Her children who were around 11 and
13 at the time had seen a story about Sudbury schools on 60 minutes. They
liked the idea so much they wanted to go to one. She started her research
and located the public free one in Washington. I really can't remember
where. Shortly thereafter they moved and enrolled. Never heard how it all
turned out.
