Classical Education
Classical education follows the medieval model of grammar, logic, and rhetoric, corresponding with the developmental stages of childhood. These three phases of classical education are known as the Trivium.
Our curriculum includes ancient and modern history, classical literature, math and the sciences, the history of art and music, and Latin studies.
Grammar
There are basic building blocks and facts that must be learned. At the grammar stage a child’s mind is a lot like a sponge, and memorization comes easily and enjoyably.
Logic
We study the why and how of each subject. The study of formal logic (fallacies and syllogisms) comes here, and the art of debate begins to emerge.
Rhetoric
Teaching our children how to express their ideas most effectively—through beautiful, respectful, creative, and persuasive speech and writing.
