English: The Grammar stage is the first stage of learning in the trivium, considered the building block years. Students at the grammar level (Kindergarten through 6th grade) use language and knowledge as foundational skills. We help students hone these skills by taking in new information, memorizing it, and reciting it through song, poetry, and chant.

Math: The Singapore math method is highly effective and uses a metacognitive approach. This means that children understand number sense through tactile, concrete and then abstract concepts.

7th-9th Grades (Logic) Meets T/TH:

Math: Singapore Dimensions 6, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1

English: In classical education the Logic stage is where students discover why certain facts exist as certainties. They want to know the “why” of something—the logic behind it. They learn to critically think through ideas and arguments, and begin to develop skills to argue with wisdom and eloquence. The goal in this stage is to teach students how to formulate good questions, sort information, draw comparisons and contrasts, and how to collect, process, and apply the knowledge they have previously acquired in the grammar stage.

9th-12th Grades (Rhetoric) Meets M/W:

Math: Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, College Algebra

English: The foundational skills from the grammar stage and the analytical skills from the logic stage come together and form a spring board of learning potential.  Students study and practice rhetoric skills that develop and grow the art of persuasive speaking and effective writing. The goal in this stage is to equip and train students to solve problems and defend their ideas and processes through writing, speech, or conversation.
