Why Choose a Classical Education?

A classical education prepares students to love learning, think critically, and live faithfully.

Classical Christian Education Defined

Classical Christian education is a time-tested approach that shapes both the mind and the heart. By focusing on truth, goodness, and beauty, it nurtures children according to their natural stages of development. Students not only master subjects but also learn to see the world through the lens of God’s design, gaining confidence in their identity and purpose.

Classical vs. Modern education

Classical Education

  • Christ-centered learning with Scripture woven into every subject
  • Focus on truth, goodness, and beauty as foundations of knowledge
  • Teaches students how to think, not just what to think
  • Interconnected subjects that reveal God’s design in creation
  • Emphasis on character formation and virtue alongside academics

Modern Education

  • Often fragmented subjects without a unifying foundation
  • Focus on passing tests and meeting standards
  • Tends to emphasize information over wisdom
  • Can neglect deeper questions of purpose and meaning
  • Limited in shaping moral character and faith
