		<description><![CDATA[From the Washington Post comes an uncharacteristically credulous piece about a soon-to-be launched private school built around a radically student-centered model. Harvard-educated lawyer Alan Shusterman&#8217;s 6-12 grade school will charge $25,000 a year in tuition, but the schedules and lessons will be different. &#8220;The model is inspired by the success of home-schoolers,&#8221; says Shusterman.
