CADE NEWMAN

UMS History Lit + Logic Teacher

Mr. Newman was raised in Hanford, in California’s Central Valley. Here in this hub of agricultural trade, something else began to take root in Cade’s life when he read Les Miserables in high school: a deep and abiding love of learning through literature. Taking that newfound excitement, and escaping the summer heat and dense winter fog for which the Valley is known, Cade came to Cal Poly in SLO to pursue a B.A. in English, as well as a M.Ed. Just over a year ago, as Mr. Newman had settled into his career, having taught Language Arts for 15 years at a local public school, the opportunity came for him to transition into a teaching role at SLOCA. Cade has been involved at SLOCA for quite some time: he and his wife chose SLOCA as their preferred way of educating their children; and, over time, his commitment to the community grew, prompting him to serve on the Board of Directors for the school. Because he could see first-hand the efficacy of Classical Education in the lives of his own children, Cade could hardly resist the opportunity to fully take part in the Great Conversation and help more students find their voice therein. In the year ahead, Cade is looking forward to delving deeper into his study of our Founding Fathers; with our upcoming year in the history cycle, there will be no shortage of resources to aide him in this endeavor!
