Here, dear Readers, is the commencement speech I gave to a large group of our fellow homeschoolers in 2010, then published in the July / August issue of Touchstone Magazine, that same year. I’m sure you’ve all heard quite a few commencement addresses and valedictories — but this one, I hope, you will find much different from those, and striking to the heart and the soul of the event.
We think of our archive as a little treasure trove. Our paid subscribers have on demand access to the entire of Word & Song, many hundreds of entries. For everyone else, there’s always plenty to see here, as well. We hope that all of our readers will revisit and share our posts with others as we continue our mission of reclaiming — one thing at a time — the good, the beautiful, and the true.
