“The glory of God is man fully alive.”

St. Irenaeus, 2nd century AD

Mission

It is our purpose to offer parents a reliable place and time of learning that continues their work of training their children. We commit to seeking exemplary faculty members who lead lives worthy of emulation, those who love what God loves in front of their pupils. We commit to a life centered around worship, from which flows all living and flourishing; to engage in our work as scholars with gusto; and to act rather than react to the cultural milieu. We commit to pursue the classical studies of the trivium, the quadrivium, philosophy, and theology plus history, science, common arts, and modern languages, all grounded in piety and bearing the fruits of wonder, worship, work, and wisdom.
