Learning with our whole bodies!

Our K/1st grade students recently took learning off the page and onto the floor—literally! They worked together to form letters with their bodies, using movement, spatial awareness, and collaboration to reinforce what they were learning.

At Sardis, we believe education is about cultivating the whole person—mind, heart, and body. For young children especially, movement helps make learning concrete, memorable, and joyful!

Sometimes the best place to learn is right on the floor!

We don't just assign books to read at Sardis, we celebrate them. After reading The Magician's Nephew, our 5th & 6th graders marked "Narnia is Born" in the classroom, complete with candlelight, twinkle lights, and the return of Aslan to a winter-bound world. This is what formation looks like: children who don't just read the story, but step inside it.

It's been a busy few months at Sardis. Since we celebrated our first graduating class in May, we've grown with new faces, new grades, and an incredible faculty leading the way. If you haven't visited our faculty page lately, take a look here: www,sardisccc.org/faculty. We're six weeks into the school year and excited to start sharing more of what our students are learning and doing on campus. More to come soon!

Last week we celebrated more than a graduating class, but we celebrated a milestone years in the making.

These three young men have been with us since Year One of our Upper School. They entered as freshmen when our high school program was just beginning, and last week they walked across the stage as the first graduates to complete the full journey from our founding years to graduation.

Over the last four years, we watched them grow in wisdom, character, friendship, leadership, and faith. They have challenged one another, encouraged one another, and built the kind of brotherhood that we pray every student finds during these formative years.

We are especially grateful to their families, who entrusted us with their sons and partnered with us every step of the way. Their investment, sacrifice, prayers, and encouragement have helped shape the young men we celebrate.

With this graduating class, we also celebrate an important milestone for our program. What began as a vision and a calling has now become a reality: we are officially a K–12 program, with graduates who have completed the course and are stepping into the next chapter of their lives.

As they move on to college, military service, collegiate athletics, and new opportunities, we send them with our love, our prayers, and our confidence that God has good work prepared for each of them.

Congratulations, gentlemen. We are proud of you.

Congratulations, Class of 2026!

One of the things that makes our school exceptional? Teachers who have lived and served in other countries and bring that experience into the classroom. Our youngest students travel around the world getting to learn about culture, animals, and food every year.

This past week, they learned about Vietnam and celebrated the Vietnamese Lunar New Year with a teacher who knows it firsthand. Students left inspired, curious, and excited to learn more. This is the kind of learning that sticks for a lifetime.

What does reading look like in a classical classroom? It looks like students discussing courage. It looks like learning about hospitality. It looks like baking cookies and delivering them with joy. After reading Bears on Hemlock Mountain, our 1st/2nd graders practiced hospitality by serving the Sardis teachers.

We don’t just teach literacy. We cultivate virtue.

Billions have been spent putting devices in classrooms nationwide. Recent reports suggest student outcomes have not improved as hoped. We’ve taken a different path.

Our classrooms are device-free.
Students read real books.
They write by hand.
They look one another in the eye.

We believe attention is one of the most important skills a child can develop and we guard it carefully.

Neuroscientist Jared Cooney Horvath said older generations “screwed up” giving students access to so much technology: “I genuinely hope Gen Z quickly figures that out and gets mad.”

Little hands, big thinking! ✨
Our PreK and Kindergarten students practiced “making 10 and some more” this week, exploring numbers with manipulatives, counting, and teamwork. Early math isn’t just memorizing, it’s discovering patterns, solving problems, and learning to think with joy.

Carrot detectives on the case! 🥕🕵️‍♂️
Our 1st graders dug into the school garden today: harvesting, learning, and having a blast discovering how food grows.

At Sardis school, education is more than books. Even on a freezing morning, our students rolled up their sleeves to load a trailer with supplies for those in need in Jamaica. This is how we cultivate character: through learning, leadership, and hands-on service.
