Welcome all students and families! It is a genuine delight to be a part of Pinnacle Classical Academy. I am from Caroleen, NC in Rutherford County. Over my 6 years of academic experience, I discovered my true passion in history and all of the details that accompany it, like politics, culture, and language. These details are often missed. I have ascertained that the way we can better understand and build our identities, our societies, our cultures, and understand the world around us is through the study of history and its details. Doing such will grant an individual the benefit of various global perspectives and, consequently, grant that student an enhanced grasp and understanding of how and why the world around them exists in the way it does today. Moreover, it will aid and assist that student in navigating our world as a worthy and dutiful individual. Ultimately, the abilities to understand, wonder, and articulate are among the greatest tools of Humankind. These qualities will be studied and developed by all who attend Pinnacle Classical Academy, thus equipping students with more advanced tools to use in their lifelong journey on our planet.
