Classical Education

Liberal Arts: To Live Free, To Live Well

Classical education is a liberal arts education. “Liberal”, in this case, means “free.” Classical education prepares the student to live in freedom and independence, and not in a servile existence. Classically trained students will be well qualified for future studies in law, medicine, business, engineering, technology, theology or any

other professional or vocational pursuit. We aim for our students to know the story of our country, and to read and write with facility. Job skills are a by-product and not the end of classical education. We are clear that a young graduate who is able to use her knowledge of the past to make good decisions in the present, and to plan wisely for the future will be in high demand and prepared to flourish. Classical education requires teachers who are trained in academic disciplines (literature, history, sciences, mathematics, etc.), and not just in “education”. Naturally, classical teachers love to spend time with children, they are kindhearted, and they know how to manage a classroom. But subject matter expertise is required. Our vision is to create a faculty that is academically gifted and in full pursuit of intellectual interests, because these habits tend to positively influence students who are by nature looking for leaders to follow. Classical education incorporates the best of yesterday and today in order to prepare students for the future. The “Trivium” is an integral component of Classical education today. The Trivium includes both content and methods of the learning in Classical Education. Education: A Guide for Parents by Dr. Christopher Perrin via Classical Academic Press

What can an ancient Roman story teach us about leadership, duty, and service?

Scholars in Mrs. Robb’s History class explored these questions as they stepped into the world of ancient Rome through an excerpt from Livy’s History of Rome, Book III: How Cincinnatus Saved the Roman Army.
Through this classical text and thoughtful discussion, scholars encountered the values and ideas of the ancient world firsthand.

High school scholars had an opportunity during lunch today to visit with the Assistant Director of Admissions from Boston University. They enjoyed learning more about the college admissions process, and the opportunities that await them after graduation. We’re grateful for opportunities like these that help our juniors and seniors thoughtfully consider what comes next!
