About Our School

We believe classical education—engaging deeply with great works and ideas—develops the critical thinking and articulate expression essential for educated citizenship. Our microschool combines rigorous academics with discussion-based learning, encouraging students to grapple with enduring questions. Students graduate with deep understanding of history and literature, strong reasoning abilities, and the confidence to engage thoughtfully with complex ideas.


Educational Philosophy: Respect for self and others is foundational to our community.
