"Mother and Child" by William Adolphe Bouguereau
"The old saying assures us that when the world needs
something great, God sends a baby to grow up, learn and improve the world.
"I
wonder how many such babies have been born, started to grow up, and then been
forced or convinced a different path than the greatness they were born to
achieve."

What is TJEd?

Every person has inner genius. Thomas
Jefferson Education consists of
helping each student discover, develop and polish his or her genius.
This is the essence and very definition of great education.
There are really only three kinds of
education, and they are best
understood from the student's perspective. Students get a good education
for one of three reasons:
- they are forced to study long, hard and effectively (the "Stick")
- they are convinced or manipulated to study long, hard and effectively (the "Carrot")
- they love to study long, hard and effectively (the "Love Affair")
If the first two are "good," the latter is truly "great."
The Stick, the Carrot, or the Love Affair: these are the three types
of education; and the love affair is by far the most effective.
