## Resource

Summary In this conversation, we engage with Bill Kurtz and Hilary Oswald to explore two distinct educational approaches shaped by faith and community. Bill Kurtz, founder of the Denver Schools of Science and Technology , shares his journey from Wall Street to education, emphasizing the importance of human dignity and the belief that every child can achieve greatness. Hilary Oswald, principal at Augustine Classical Academy , discusses the principles of classical education and the significance of community in shaping students' lives. Both educators highlight the challenges and opportunities in the current educational landscape, offering insights into building a culture of support and encouragement for teachers and students alike.
