Keeping Them out of the Hands of the State: Two Critiques of Christian Schools.
Appleby, Scott R.
American Journal of Education, v98 n1 p62-82 Nov 1989
Discusses historical aspects of the Christian school movement in the past century as it evolved into one of the fastest-growing branches of private education in America. Compares and contrasts salient themes from Alan Peshkin's profile of a Fundamentalist academy in Illinois and Susan Rose's comparative analysis of a charismatic day school and a Fundamentalist academy in upstate New York.
