Why Classical Education?
For centuries, classical education has been used to raise up renowned leaders, build our nation, and preserve Western civilization. Unlike today’s educational approach, which focuses on standardized tests, a classical education focuses on teaching objective standards, moral instruction, and civic virtue.

Curriculum Highlights
Singapore Math
Singapore math is a cohesive, world-renowned program that focuses on developing algebraic thinking from kindergarten through 7th grade, and culminates with the study of calculus in high school.
Explicit Phonics
Our phonics curriculum cultivates literacy by providing students with the building blocks of English. By learning spelling, reading, and writing skills in this complex language, students can communicate with confidence and fluency.
Why We Study Latin
Latin may be a “dead language,” but as a foundational language, it provides a key to learning modern languages. In addition, it sharpens the mind, enhances English literacy, and provides a unique perspective on ancient Roman history.
Technology
Digital technology alone does not automatically translate to better learning. While technology can be utilized to enhance learning, we believe that students learn best in a traditional, teacher-led classroom setting with paper, pencils, and real books.
