Leora Hooper, an educator in Mississippi, was recently profiled by the NYT for the school that she opened in 2021 an empty Yazoo City storefront after being fed up with the public education system. Abundance Educational Academy is a K-12 Christian school that "strives to make student’s education as affordable as possible." Tuition is $300/year and with only 50 students, Hooper cannot afford to pay herself. But she says, “what I don’t get here, I’ll get on the other side.” BlackThreads
