Founders Grove Classical Academy is a tuition-free public school that educates students through a virtues-based tradition of American classical education. The classical curriculum is time-tested, research-based, and proven to develop children into thoughtful, caring, educated, and freethinking young adults. The program emphasizes education in the humanities, sciences, and arts, while integrating Latin to promote deeper learning.

Founded by dedicated families and community leaders, Founders Grove partners with parents in the moral and intellectual development of students. We believe education should nourish both the mind and the soul, preparing students for academic success while cultivating a lifelong love of learning and inspiring a sense of wonder.

Founders Grove will enroll students in kindergarten through 5th grade for the 2026-27 school year. We are seeking a mission-aligned leader to join us ahead of the school's opening to help build its culture, systems, and instructional team from the ground up.
