What is Classical Education?
Classical education in the liberal arts and sciences is a framework of effective and innovative teaching methods to foster high-quality education and improve academic achievement. It is experiencing a resurgence across the country and is the preferred choice by a growing number of homeschool communities, micro-school pods, private schools, and public charter schools. The purpose of a classical education is to develop wisdom and virtue within students so they become lifelong learners capable of mastering subjects with the tools they have acquired, and also active citizens engaged in building, sustaining, and transforming the social fabric of their communities.
