Will and Jada Smith's Opening a Private School

It looks like Wil and Jada Smiths homeschooling endeavors have led to them opening a private school. They have been homeschooling for six years now, and have decided to take thier experience and build a private school. In a way I am dissapointed because they may no longer be a visible force in homeschooling, but at the same time, they are also forging roads for the future of education in general.

Here's a quite from the article:
In 2005, Jada Pinkett Smith told ESSENCE: The school system in this country, public and private is designed for the industrial age. We're in a technological age. We don't want our kids to memorize. We want them to learn.
