Speaker Night: Blake Boles

  • September 17, 2018
  • 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM
  • Greenfields Academy, Chicago



If you have a tween or teenager who doesn’t love school, what’s the right thing to do—push harder, or try something new? For more than a decade, Blake Boles has worked with happy, thriving teenagers who made the decision to quit traditional school—or never went to school in the first place.

Now Blake is touring the U.S. to give a new talk: “Yes, You Can Quit Traditional High School and Everything Will Be Okay.” Whether you’re skeptical about alternative education or you’re a seasoned educational rebel, this talk will inspire, inform, and entertain you with powerful stories of teenagers who have skipped the traditional high school path and turned out just fine.

We’re excited to host Blake at Greenfields Academy as we prepare to launch our own non-traditional high school next fall. Blake's talk is one hour long, open to the public, free, and appropriate for adults and teenagers. More info and RSVP here: https://www.greenfieldsacademy.com/events/speaker-night-blake-boles/


Greenfields Academy; 3232 N Elston Ave
