Classical Education

About The Guest
Anna-Marie Carter is an enthusiastic classical education convert. After years of disillusionment under the philosophy of progressive education, she had about given up teaching altogether. Her hope in education was saved by a call to teach music at Founders Classical Academy of Mesquite where she made lifelong friends and fell in love with the craft. She continues this love by sharing her joy for the fine arts with her students in and out of the classroom. Anna-Marie teaches alongside her gracious husband Daniel at Founders Classical in Tyler where they are raising their sweet children Amelia, Remington, and Clara Mae.
