What is an Orthodox Christian Classical Education?
“Classical Education” refers to the manner of educating children according to the Classical model. The Classical model, time-tested since ancient Greek, Roman, and medieval times, known as the Trivium, meaning, “triple-way.” The Classical model recognizes three stages of mental/physiological development in children with corresponding stages of learning. These stages closely parallel the three levels of spiritual development: purification, enlightenment, and unity with God. The goal of an Orthodox Christian classical education is to produce students able to live out and give strong witness to the True Faith as adults.
Curriculum focus
Pre K/K – Montessori/classical
Grade 1-6 – Classical
Our curriculum will follow the classical model, the heart of which is great works of literature, art, history and science. Through these works children and their families are invited to encounter the great ideas and events of history together. Through this type of curriculum we aim to support families in the education of their children, and also to inspire strong relationships and love of learning amongst everyone involved.
