Covington Classical Academy CCA’s mission is to develop a passion for learning both inside and outside the classroom. Visit www.covingtonclassicalacademy.org to learn more.

To succeed in today’s world, students need to learn not just as young adults, but throughout their careers. We designed the CCA curriculum, based on classical education, to build a real desire to understand. Our unique Fifth Day program takes learning outside of the classroom to build life-long skills.

Something is taking shape in our windows…

CCA students have been hard at work preparing our windows for Blink:
“The odyssey of learning lasts a lifetime… journey with us.”

With a little patience, a lot of paint, and some help from Art Markit, the message is making its way across our windows—and we can’t wait to show you the finished display.

If you’re exploring BLINK in Covington October 8–11, make CCA one of your stops and see what our students have created.

A special thank you to Artmarkit for helping our students bring their vision to life.
The journey is just beginning.

Hello from the rolling hills of Scotland’s Antonine Wall!

A wedding, a hike, and a little ancient Roman history—Head of School Ms. Kusch’s kind of getaway!

While in Scotland for a wedding a few weeks ago, Ms. Kusch explored ancient Roman remains along the Antonine Wall. For a lifelong learner, following your curiosity is part of the fun!

At CCA, curiosity and a love of lifelong learning lead the way—and Ms. Kusch leads by example!

Turns out, CCA knows how to do Trivia Night.

Thank you to everyone who joined us Friday night for an evening of trivia, friendly competition, creative costumes, and some very committed table decorating.

Congratulations to My Personal Favorites, our Trivia Night champions, with Tailgater’s Anonymous taking second place! And congratulations to The Roman Empire Strikes Back, winners of Best Table Decorations for the fourth year running. We’re not sure where Roman history ends and Star Wars begins, but apparently somewhere in between is a winning table.

A special thank you to the Zembrodt Education Center for hosting us and to The Point/Arc of Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati for joining the competition—and for making the evening even more exciting by drawing the winner of their car raffle!

And one more big thank you to the local businesses, alumni, and friends of CCA who sponsored the evening:

Blinkers Tavern • CCA Class of 2024 • The Hannaford • Hurry Curry Cincinnati • Ocotillo Heights Productions • Reser Bicycle Outfitters • Roebling Books & Coffee • Smiley’s Pies • Smoke Justis • Stitch Yarn Studio • Wunderbar Covington

Your support helped make the night possible while raising funds to support CCA students. We’re grateful to have so many people show up, have some fun, and give back to our school.

Until next time, start brushing up on those random facts and planning your table theme.

Fifth Day took CCA behind the scenes at Cincinnati Music Hall!

Our students headed across the river and hopped aboard the Connector for an inside look at one of Cincinnati’s most iconic cultural landmarks.

Patrick Schleker, Principal Timpanist of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, welcomed students behind the scenes, giving them an up-close look at the instruments, spaces, and preparation that bring performances at Cincinnati Music Hall to life.

From there, Becky with Friends of Music Hall led students through the building, sharing its history and helping them discover more of the stories behind this remarkable Cincinnati landmark.

From riding the streetcar through the city to standing backstage at Music Hall, it was another Fifth Day spent learning beyond the classroom and experiencing firsthand some of what makes our region extraordinary.

A huge thank you to Patrick Schleker and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, Becky and Friends of Music Hall, and Cincinnati Music Hall for welcoming our students and sharing your time and expertise with them. And thanks to the Connector for getting us there!

Classroom for the day: Pyramid Hill.

Last Friday, CCA students braved the heat for a Fifth Day exploring the art and grounds of Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park.

Between stops, they found some much-needed respite in the shade, where they cooled off, talked about what they’d seen, and prepared to venture back out into the heat.

A little art, a little nature, and a very warm Fifth Day well spent.

A little w**e, a little learning, and a wonderful evening with the extended CCA community.

To kick off the new school year, Ms. Kusch led guests through an intimate w**e tasting at the Zembrodt Education Center—an opportunity to gather, learn something new, and support Covington Classical Academy along the way.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening such a success. We loved sharing our new space in the Zembrodt Education Center!

Whether you missed out or can't stop thinking about it, stay tuned. Our annual Sips for Scholarships w**e tasting returns April 23 and 24, 2027, bringing our community together for CCA’s biggest fundraising event of the year.

There will be plenty more to share in the months ahead. For now, consider this your first taste of what's coming.

September 11, 2001.

For our students, it is history. For many of their teachers, parents, and grandparents, it is a day we remember with remarkable clarity.

Classical education teaches us that understanding the past is essential to understanding the world we have inherited. History does not have to be ancient to shape who we are.

Twenty-five years after that fateful day, we remember the lives lost, the courage shown in the face of unimaginable tragedy, and the extraordinary acts of service and sacrifice that followed.

We also accept the responsibility that comes with remembering: to tell the story to a generation that cannot remember it for themselves.

Never forget.

And never stop teaching the generations that came after.
