How did Cheese Press get its start?
Searching for Curriculum...
The co-founders of Cheese Press are also the Executive Directors for Hazelwood Prep, a non-profit educational organization serving the homeschool community and traditionally schooled students who need additional support. When establishing that organization they struggled to find an independent study curriculum that taught whole world history, in order, and backed by scholarly research. The material needed to take an honest look at historical events without suggesting that the students internalize the blame for humanity's past mistakes. Thus, they started writing their own. Over the past three years many lessons have been learned as they implemented the first round of teaching some of these courses. It is now time to publish the first edition of Volume One of the History cycle: Ancient History.
How did Cheese Press get its name?
The Inaugural Class of Hazelwood Prep...
Year one for Hazelwood Prep was the first iteration of Influencers in American History. In an effort to teach primary sources the class was given a booklet to read aloud in class as we studied the World's Fairs. This booklet was an actual piece of memorabilia that children were given from a print on demand printing press display. As the students muddled through the booklet the main character repeatedly mentioned the wonderous cheese press that he discovered at the World's Fair. After about the third mention of a "cheese press" the students began to dramatically shout the phrase. As such the name was adopted for the publishing company as a fun sort of play on words.
