Campus Talking Points: Add any talking points provided by campus below



  • Talking Point 1 We offer a traditional classical education. 

  • Talking Point 2 We offer after free school tutoring on an as-needed basis.

  • Talking Point 3 Our campus is small by design, which gives it a private school atmosphere where parents, faculty, and staff can work together for the benefit of each child. Though it may seem like a small private school, it is an established, tuition-free public school of choice.

  • Talking Point 4 The mindset says that well-informed and self-governing people who pursue the common good promote a healthy and free society. That mindset is informed by a distinct body of knowledge and tools of learning that promotes an understanding of the human experience and the world in which we live.

  • Talking Point 5 Our classical threefold method of instruction recognizes that all learning is built upon previous learning and that students learn in a hierarchical manner: systematic knowledge acquisition, dialectic and logic that is an extension of the knowledge, and rhetoric or the art of persuasion, which provides for the eloquent expression of thought.
