If you’ve chosen an alternative to high school, is college the logical next step? Whether to apply and more options to consider.
As self-directed learners, we face two interesting questions at the same time: How to prepare for college admissions as a non-traditional applicant, and whether higher education is even necessary.
In this 45-minute presentation, Blake Boles will share stories, principles, and research related to these tricky questions, followed by an open Q&A to dive into more specific questions and concerns.
Blake Boles is the author of College Without High School, Better Than College, and Why Are You Still Sending Your Kids to School? Learn more at blakeboles.com.

The loss of free play and what it means for our children

Chasing Childhood is a documentary that explores a phenomenon affecting kids from a broad range of socioeconomic backgrounds– free play and independence have all but disappeared, supplanted by relentless perfectionism and record high anxiety and depression. Unsupervised play builds critical life skills: grit, independence, and resourcefulness. Though children may appear more accomplished on paper, by the time they get to college they often struggle, lacking the emotional tools to navigate young adulthood. The film explores how we got here and potential solutions that might empower our kids.
Tickets are $7 and must be purchased through Eventbrite. There will be no tickets sold at the door. There is limited street parking available near the Arts Council of Princeton. Parking is also available a block away at the Spring Street Garage, 28 Spring Street, Princeton, NJ.
This is an in-person event co-hosted by Princeton Learning Cooperative, Princeton Fusion Academy, Painted Oak Nature School, Creekside Homeschool Learning Cooperative, Raritan Learning Cooperative, Root and Wild, and Bucks Learning Cooperative.
