Classical Education

In Brief
​Sometimes it's a challenge to describe a Classical Education without a lengthy explanation.  The following quotes and one-liners seek to give simple form to the beautiful concept of Classical Education. 
"Classical education is the traditional, time-tested form of education, begun by the Greeks and Romans and developed through history by the Church."

"The formation of human beings, not human doings."

"Classical Education trains the mind to learn, to think and to persuade —skills that are urgently needed to navigate our complex modern world."

"It focuses on preparing students for human excellence, rather than just college and career readiness.  However, while forming students in wisdom and virtue they are also given the practical skills ​and aptitudes needed for future success in education and career."
​
​"The ability to think is the goal of a Classical Education."

God Bless
