We provide the most time-tested methods of educating students, and at the same time, delivers the most cutting-edge education in America. Our students receive a “classical” education. The entire curriculum is based in the Classical Liberal Arts and Sciences with a strong emphasis on civic education.

A classical education aims to recover lost tools of learning in order to cultivate wise and virtuous men and women who will be responsible citizens of our republic.

Our Distinctives

• Classical virtues, as well as principles in self-government and civility, are identified and clearly taught in a seamless manner through course content.
• The curriculum is knowledge-rich and built around the belief that there is a common body of knowledge all members of our society should master in the core areas and in the Fine Arts.
• Emphasis is placed on minds-on learning and on fostering a spirit of inquiry in students.
• Standardized tests do not drive the curriculum.
• Literacy is taught through explicit phonics and traditional grammar and composition.
• Logic and rhetoric are emphasized in the upper grades.
• Greek and Latin root words are taught in upper elementary grades. Latin studies are an integral part of the upper school curriculum.
• Mathematical and scientific knowledge are pursued for their own sakes, not merely for their practical applications.
• Literature and history instruction are rooted in primary sources and in great books.
• Instruction in the Fine Arts includes theory, history, and performance.
• Students are trained in study skills, planning and organization, close reading of text, and note taking.
• Importance is placed on bodily fitness and physical education in concert with fit minds.
• Co-curricular and extra-curricular academic and athletics activities are offered and encouraged to promote a well-ordered and well-rounded experience for students.
