We want you to teach Free Skool Santa Cruz.

Free Skool Santa Cruz is a completely grassroots effort, a bunch of individuals deciding to act collectively and autonomously to create a skill-sharing network, a school without institutional control.

We want you to teach Free Skool Santa Cruz.

Do you have unique skills and knowledge? Are you willing to share what you know in a non-authoritarian and interactive way? Do you appreciate learning in an informal setting?

If you are willing to learn, teach, or help organize Free Skool, then we’d like you to be part of it. We are all students and we are all teachers.

Here is an incomplete list of classes we hope to see as part of Free Skool Santa Cruz.

· Climbing
· Non-Violent Communication
· Police Interrogations & Grand Juries
· Self-Defense
· Local Plant Identification & Use
· Day Hikes
· Local History
· Wilderness Skills
· Cooking with Local Seasonal Foods
· Food Preservation
· Spanish, English, & Sign-Language
· Lo-tech Beer and Wine-Making
· DIY Medicine
· Music and Dancing
· Practical Security Culture
· Lo-tech orienteering
· Sewing, Weaving, & Spinning
· Radical History
· Permaculture & Gardening
· Direct Action How-To
· Tech & Computer Skills
· Building Things

Summer Quarter runs Jul 1 to Sep 31. The Free Skool Spring Quarter teacher registration deadline is coming up June 10th. We will not accept classes after this date.

If you have a class idea that focuses on self-reliance, community, do-it-yourself culture, and creating a new and beautiful world, propose it to us.

If you are interested in teaching a class or would like to help, contact us soon. Email us, call, or go to the Free Skool Santa Cruz website.

Love,
Free Skool Santa Cruz

Hey, only one week until summer quarter deadline and we don't have a lot of classes yet. If you were thinking about teaching a class, this might be the quarter to do it. -Rico

Deadlines: For teachers, the deadline to remember is June 10th. We'll need your class info by that deadline. We will have the calendar finished within several days of that deadline, so if you miss it, you miss it.

Class Info: If you are teaching a class this quarter, we'll need solid dates, times, location, and other info at least two a half weeks before the start of the quarter, that's June 10th. Here is a quickie form. Please try to keep the description brief and use standard punctuation/capitalization so it isn't a pain in the ass to put on the calendar. Thanks.

Responsibility (important!): Free Skool is a decentralized, non-institutional project, in other words, you and I make it happen. Therefore, you have certain responsibilities as a teacher. Promote your class through word-of-mouth, fliering, community outreach, and online. Work with other Free Skoolers to post calendars and fliers. Be prompt and reliable. Get a copy of the teacher packet. Post updates and news on the Free Skool website. Keep in touch with your students, before and after your class. Take good care of the spaces who graciously host your class. Help with the quarterly potluck and How to Run a Free Skool workshop.

Return this form as soon as you can. If you want to help with the organizing parts of this whole grassroots endeavor, talk to us.
