An Intro from President Emeritus Mike Smith

Why did HSLDA’s board choose Jim as our next president?

I can tell you why: I’ve worked with him for 20 years. I know Jim as a friend, as a person who has worked shoulder-to-shoulder with us to advance freedom. Jim has character, and his character comes from his deep, committed faith.

And it doesn’t hurt that he’s smart. It doesn’t hurt that he loves the law. It doesn’t hurt that he loves to research.

Jim loves liberty. He loves homeschooling. He’s respected by the state leadership. They love him. He’s respected and loved by our co-laborers. Jim will see great success. He’s the man for this season.
