Classical Christian Education
Classical Christian education is an approach to learning that emphasizes biblical teachings, focuses on the classical liberal arts, and progresses through rigorous curriculum that compliments the natural way children grow and process information. It incorporates a teaching model from the classical education movement known as the Trivium, consisting of three parts:
Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric
Grammar
Kindergarten through 5th Grade
The student learns the basic skills of reading, writing, and mathematics. Children K - 5th grades are naturally good at memorization, and the grammar stage takes full advantage of this fact. This forms the foundation from which all other subjects can be approached.
End Result:
Student becomes knowledgeable.
Logic
6th through 8th Grade
The student studies formal logic and argumentation. Students 6th - 8th grades have a natural argumentative tendency, which if properly channeled, will enable children to think and draw their own conclusions based on facts.
End Result:
Student becomes a thinker.
Rhetoric
9th through 12th Grade
The student learns how to give expression to thoughts. In the high school years, self-expression is very important. The student who is classically trained will be able to communicate their thoughts with eloquence and clarity.
End Result:
Student becomes articulate.
Parental Involvement
At CLA, we welcome parental involvement in each child's education.
Rigorous Curriculum
Our curriculum helps students achieve a life-long love of learning
Qualified Teachers
Our teachers are certified through ACSI and are required to meet stringent standards of excellence.
Student Development
Students grow holistically - mentally, spiritually, and physically through academics, worship, and extra-curricular activities
We couldn't do what we do at CLA without the help of our families and our sponsors who partner with us in our vision and mission to classically educate our students to view our world and the events that take place through a Christian worldview.
If you would be interested in supporting us in this mission, sending your children, or sponsoring a student to attend, please contact us at info@clak12.org.
