What Classes Do We Offer?
Pre-Kindergarten - Designed for 3-4 year old students, our youngest members will meet for 2 1/2 hours each Monday and Wednesday morning. We will explore and will be creative through play, reading, learning and crafts! Our goal in preschool is not necessarily to get students ahead of their peers with reading and math. In the classical model of education, the goal is to create 'wonder' at God's creation and to entice/invite students to learn. Parents with Prek-3rd graders are the PRIMARY educators in reading and math since students advance in these skills at different ages.
Kindergarten - Our five year old students will attend Kindergarten all days on Mondays and Wednesdays. We will have just one or two teachers for this class and students will be introduced to science, history, counting, numbers, reading and MORE! Again, parents will spearhead the reading and math instruction at home and will be supported by activities in the classroom
1st Grade and 2nd Grades - Just as with Kindergarten, we have only one or two teachers work with this grade. Students will be exposed to history, science, math skills and will pursue writing skills, art skills, music and MORE! Parents will continue to work with children at home as they learn reading and math. However, in 2nd grade, we do begin formal instruction in math so that students are better prepared for the 3rd grade math class.
3rd-8th Grades - Students will have multiple instructors and will have classes in Latin, Grammar/Writing, History, Science and Math. 3rd-5th graders will also have art, music and physical education components. One highlight of this cooperative is that families (and K-6 in the cooperative) will learn history together each year. Therefore, each year will highlight a particular historical period, allowing families to create projects together, read together and take field trips together! The history schedule for 3rd-6th is below:
2021-2022 - Ancients
2023-2024 - Medieval
2024-2025 - Reformation/Renaissance
2025-2-26 - Modern
7th and 8th graders do a 2-year intensive of American History
9th-12th Grades - In addition to the above 'great books' program, there will be math, science, Logic and Latin offered. High Seniors will also complete a Senior Thesis Project. The 'history' schedule for high school is as follows:
9th Grade - Ancients
10th Grade - Medieval-Modern
11th and 12th Grades (rotation): Year 1: Modern Literature & American Government
Year 2: World Literature and World History
