Today on HeightsCast, Joe Cardenas, Head of Mentoring at The Heights, proposes 5 purposes of study. Our boys should always have a “why” in mind before they roll up their sleeves and dive into their study. But are grades enough? Not really–at least they shouldn’t be. Joe argues that there is a deeper purpose to our deep study.
