The Definitive Truth of Jesus - Paideia Classical School

👉TRUTH👈
New Blog in our 14 Virtues Blog Series!

WHAT ARE THE 14 IDEAS THAT GUIDE PCS?

Twentieth-century educator and philosopher Mortimer Adler identified over one hundred key ideas that form the core of philosophical thought in western civilization. These “great ideas” appear in literature, politics, religion, the arts, education, health, and business and undergird our ability to communicate common values in public discourse. These ideas form a springboard of commonality for people of different backgrounds to be able to work together to achieve culture-wide goals.

The Great Ideas are covered in books 2 and 3 of the Encyclopedia Britannica Great Books of The Western World – find them on amazon here. In the Paideia Classical School, we have narrowed the field to 14 key ideas that span all of our levels and all subjects. Though classified by Adler, the fourteen we’ve chosen fundamentally describe the nature of God and therefore represent ideas we want our students to be able to recognize and use to build their own worldview. These “14 Ideas” form the foundation for every lesson, formal or informal.

The Definitive Truth of Jesus - Paideia Classical School A Guide to Understanding and Living According to Christ's Teachings Truth is a fundamental concept that has been discussed and debated throughout human history. It is often considered to be the foundation upon which knowledge, morality, and even society itself is built. At Paideia Classical School,....

Praying Intentionally for our Children - Paideia Classical School

Check out our latest blog on Praying Intentionally for our Children.

"Once one of my friend’s daughters was accused of something her mom and I knew she had not done. Jealous friends tarnished the young woman’s reputation because of her ability and gentle spirit—they knew she wouldn’t fight back. I heard my voice raise as I talked to the mother of the accused young woman. My voice cracked as I pushed back tears in talking to my friend who was devastated to be going through...."

Can God even reach him? Birthday parties and home runs hit thrill us, however, we all experience the other end of the spectrum as well, the awkward moments,

One of Paideia's goals is to love the Lord with all our hearts and to love our neighbors as ourselves. But what about our enemies? God created all people in His image, including our enemies, and He tells us to love them too.

Happy World Kindness Day! Paideia Classical School seeks for students to speak and write persuasively with wisdom and kindness. Our students engage in meaningful friendships that glorify God and honor others. We can’t wait to meet you and your family! Schedule a tour at www.pcsedu.co
