==History==
Wichita Collegiate School was originally conceived in the 1950s as an alternative to Wichita public education. Its name was originally Wichita Independent Day School.〔Robert Love, ch. 3, "How to Start Your Own school" http://downloads.heartland.org/16690.pdf〕 The founder and first chairman of Wichita Collegiate, Robert Love, claimed in his book, ''How to Start Your Own School'', that, "Traditional private and parochial schools either eagerly emulate public institutions or are coerced by the state into doing so through acceptance of government accreditation and certification regulations ... Collegiate was independent of both church and state from the beginning for very practical reasons. All of us had already rejected state-run schools as being a restrictive, inefficient way to educate children. To be consistent, we decided against any association with the state in our new education venture. This meant no special legislative favors, no participation in government loan or grant programs, no state accreditation, and no requirement that we hire only certified teachers."〔excerpted from Robert Love, pp. 7, 19, "How to Start Your Own school" http://downloads.heartland.org/16690.pdf〕 Robert Love was also a member of the National Council of the Libertarian John Birch Society but he parted ways with that organization over its support for the Vietnam War.〔Robert Love, p. 29, "How to Start Your Own School" http://downloads.heartland.org/16690.pdf〕
