Austin Classical Academy
Austin Classical Academy’s program is based on the belief that successful students become successful adults. We have formulated our core curriculum to prepare students to succeed in college and beyond.
WHAT IS A CLASSICAL EDUCATION?
- Classical education teaches the curriculum and content that has been transferred through centuries and serving to educate the learner to be a successful participant and contributor in life.
- Classical education establishes within the learner an awareness of truth, virtue and beauty, leading students through a grammar stage, logic stage and rhetoric stage of learning.
- Classical education teaches the learner to successfully achieve mastery of curriculum and be well-prepared for tests and tasks, but also how to achieve mastery in life pursuits.
