radio free school year three
An all-volunteer weekly radio show by, for and about un-schoolers

"...the history of the word attests the fact: for leisure in Greek is skole, and in Latin scola, the English ‘school.’ The word used to designate the place where we educate and teach is derived from the word which means ‘leisure.’ ‘School’ does not, properly speaking, mean school, but leisure."

Leisure - the basis of culture by Josef Pieper.
