Renewal of Catholic liberal education alert!

I always love to publicize this Academic Retreat for Teachers put on by the Institute for Catholic Liberal Education. It is well worth the money for grade and high school teachers at Catholic schools, for home school parents, for college professors and anyone who wants to spend a week immersed in a genuine Catholic liberal education--reading great books. You will certainly get inspired and recharged, plus you'll get the opportunity to spend time at the ND Grotto!

What
made this experience unique was that we did more than simply talk about the
merits of a classical curriculum, we experienced them for ourselves, first
hand.... I am writing to thank you for putting together a wonderful and
carefully thoughtout conference. It provided a much-needed respite from the
stress and chaos of becoming assistant principal at a new high school.
