New School Balances Academics and Agriculture

Nurturing hearts, building minds, and growing futures is the mission behind the new Faith and Farm Schoolhouse opening this fall.  Teacher and school founder Sarah Cessna was recently on the Dave Norman Show talking about being raised on a family farm and the importance behind both academic and agricultural education.  In a screen time world, Cessna says children need to be outside now more than ever…

“They need to be working with the soil and with animals and hands-on.  There’s data that shows so much screen time is affecting our kids in a negative way.  It’s increasing depression and anxiety.  So, we want to be outside.  We don’t wanna be sitting at a desk all day looking at a screen.”
