becoming georgic
Our story
In 2021 while attending another LEMI-based school, Polar Star, in the Ogden area, Milissa felt strongly pulled toward creating a new commonwealth school for families as a whole.
She shared her vision and Joslyn and Linden chose to help. Together they have created Dayspring Family School.
This school is based on the Georgic principles of:
Working in providence with the land to create prosperity.
Gaining confidence in these relationships to become wise stewards.
Contributing and creating value to ourselves and others.
How to create freedom and support families.
Working together with others creates inner confidence and peace and interdependent strength.
The Georgic principles come from the poem by Virgil, The Georgics, and is a LEMI scholar project written by William DeMille offered here at our school.
As we work together in our school, we find these principles over and over again. William has said that these principles are the basis of civilization and we agree. We want to create civility and all the wonderful results that come from it.
The other focus of our school is joy. We want joy to be in each scholar, in each class and activity.
Welcome to our school.
