“The scholar has lived in many times and is therefore in some degree immune from the great cataract of nonsense that pours from the press and the microphone of his own age.”

-C.S. Lewis

What is classical Christian Education

     The Association of Classical Christian Schools state:

"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."

​

     A classical Christian school uses a "Biblical Framework to Understand Everything.

This is more than adding a bible verse to the curriculum.  When history, science, math, philosophy, art, and other subjects are integrated around the truth that God is the Creator of all that exists, and therefore all knowledge is interrelated and points back to Him. Theology is the queen of the sciences, with all subjects understood through the revealed word of God and natural/human history and philosophy.

     Biblical standards of conduct are applied in all arenas of school life, acknowledging that Jesus Christ is Lord of all. The schools acknowledge that God has given parents the responsibility for the education of their children and that the schools instruct those students under the parents’ delegated authority. Most graduates remain faithful to Christ even through college and have a heart to serve others."
