    The GoodTimes Show with host Damon Epps welcomes Clayton Marsh, a visionary educator who moved to Bentonville in 2016 to lead the founding of Thaden School, a beacon of innovative education that serves families from all walks of life in Northwest Arkansas. In this episode, recorded on August 21, 2023, we take an in-depth look at how Thaden School’s teaching methods and educational programs nurture creativity, foster community engagement, and promote civic responsibility.
