Classical Education is a centuries old methodology aimed at forming young minds through the emphasis of language and mathematics. The aim of Classical Education is to equip students with the “tools” of learning teaching them how to think and be life-long learners. This approach focuses on the modeling of virtue, the maturing of the intellect, and the ability to powerfully express oneself to others.
Latin is unapologetically incorporated beginning in the 3rd grade. There are many benefits to studying Latin, including a greater knowledge and appreciation for our English language, and ease of studying other languages, a greater appreciation for classical literature, and higher SAT scores.
