Jenny Clark, co-founder of Read The Word, said that a new network of Classical Christian hybrid schools aims to strengthen core academic skills to better prepare students for future tech careers. This statement was made on X.
“This is why we’re working to launch a new network of Classical Christian hybrid schools,” said Clark. “Fueling the pipeline for future tech careers with a solid foundation in grammar, logic, and rhetoric. If you’re a tech co., love America, and want to learn more, send me a DM!”
The classical Christian education movement in the United States has been experiencing rapid expansion. Hybrid and alternative schooling models, such as “University-Model” schools that combine on-campus days with home-based instruction, are gaining traction as families seek more flexible, faith-based options beyond conventional public schooling. According to reporting by The 74, this surge is driven by parent demand for school models that better integrate home involvement, faith values, and academically rigorous curricula. The hybrid model is described as a way to expose more families to classical Christian schooling while accommodating homeschool preferences.
A 2025 study on workforce readiness found that 39% of workers’ core skills are expected to change by 2030. Analytical thinking, technological literacy, and adaptability top employer priorities—indicating that foundational academic skills like math, logic, and grammar remain critical for technology-related career pathways. The World Economic Forum reported this skill disruption trend in its 2025 “Future of Jobs” outlook.
Research from the Coalition for Career Development Center shows that national career-readiness indicators—including those tied to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) or technology fields—remain weak. Many states are still working to ensure at least 90% of young adults ages 20-24 stay connected to education, employment or training. This suggests foundational academic skills are crucial but often underdeveloped in preparedness for tech-driven fields.
Clark is founder and executive director of the nonprofit Love Your School, a parent-advocacy organization based in Arizona. She also co-founded Read The Word(s), holds a degree in Business Economics from the University of Arizona and a Master of Divinity from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, and served on the Arizona State Board of Education beginning in 2022.
Read The Word(s) is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization mobilizing churches, families, and schools to address literacy. It has expanded into supporting classical Christian hybrid schooling initiatives by positioning its mission around launching new schools and hybrid models that blend Christian classical pedagogy with flexible schooling options.
