Brooklyn Record pointed me toward today’s piece in the New York Times about the Brooklyn Free School, located in two floors of a Free Methodist
church at 120 16th Street. We know a bunch of kids there who seem to be thriving.

"At this school, students don’t get grades, don’t have
homework, don’t take tests, and don’t even have to go to class — unless
they want to… On any given day, a student might be playing chess,
reading a book, practicing yoga or helping mummify a chicken."
