About Our School

We believe great literature, history, philosophy, and science provide unparalleled opportunities for developing both knowledge and critical thinking. Our classical microschool emphasizes careful reading and thoughtful discussion of ideas that matter. Students graduate prepared for advanced study, confident in their reasoning abilities, and engaged with important questions.


Educational Philosophy: We examine our practices regularly to ensure we're not perpetuating biases or barriers. Continuous self-examination and willingness to change are essential to our equity commitment. We seek feedback, admit mistakes, and adjust practices to better serve all students.
