School Sucks Project self-knowledge, self-education, self-mastery
This group is dedicated to teachers who would like to put their libertarian philosophy into action in their classrooms. This group is also dedicated to exposing the statist tools embedded in traditional schooling so that teachers can recognize them for what they are. In this way, members hope to avoid the pitfalls of statist schooling and create ideas about education that will empower and grow the individual.
