Brand Talking Points: Classical Academy

We purpose to provide a classical program that reflects the motto of Charlotte Mason:  “Education is an Atmosphere, a Discipline, a Life”

Our program includes a strong liberal arts curriculum, with an emphasis on American civics, art, music, math, science and Latin in pursuit of the true, the good and the beautiful. 

We believe a classical program is an effective way to promote wisdom and virtue while preparing students to live as responsible citizens and lifelong learners in a free society.

 

Classical Academy 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 school grades.

- Greek and Latin root words are taught in the upper elementary grades. Latin studies are an integral part of the upper school curriculum.

-Mathematical and scientific knowledge are pursued for their own sake, not merely for their practical applications. 

-Literature and History instructions 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 athletic activities are offered and encouraged to promote a well-ordered and well-rounded experience for students.
