Education that Inspires Depth and Wisdom.




Classical Christian education (CCE) is a time-tested educational system which establishes a biblical worldview (called Paideia), incorporates methods based on natural phases of child development, cultivates the seven Christian virtues, trains students in reasoning through the Trivium (Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric), and engages children in “the great conversation” through the historical Great Books.

We use a Christ-Centered Approach to teach students
how to think, not just what to think- from a Christian worldview perspective.


“Train well for this life, and train well for the life to come; train well for earth, and train well for heaven; train them for God, train them for Christ, and train them for eternity. Amen.”
— 1888, English Pastor J.C. Ryle, “The Duties of Parents”
