The Grammar Stage / Pre-Kindergarten to 4th Grade Programs:
Students in grades pre-kindergarten through four focus on the grammar stage of learning. Memorization and drill using rhyme, rhythm and recitation regularly characterizes classroom instruction. One primary teacher may be supplemented by specialists in the Arts and Latin at the various grade levels. The teacher introduces concepts and provides a schedule of assignments for reinforcement at home.

The Logic Stage / Middle School Programs:
Students in grades six through eight mature into the understanding, logic, dialectic or reasoning stage of the classical trivium. Although memorization and drill regarding content continue, students begin to ask and answer “how” and “why” questions regarding their studies. In grade eight, students formally study Logic as a well-ordered system.

Younger students in grades five and six continue to have a primary teacher supplemented by specialists, while students in grades seven and eight transition into the university-style schedule. Teachers assign home studies to provide proper pacing to complete subject content over the course of the school year. A tuition-based study and tutorial center is available upon request.

The Rhetoric Stage / High School Programs:
High school studies include the grammar of each subject, but concentrate on developing the logic and rhetoric stages of the classical trivium. Students may enroll in three or more courses on a university-style schedule. Each course includes classroom instruction two hours per week at the school site. Some courses include a laboratory or studio component and meet a third day per week.

The balance of the educational program will continue at home where the parent supervises each student's directed study. A tuition-based study and tutorial center is available upon request. Selected courses culminate with the Advanced Placement exam for qualified students.
