CAHS studio (classroom) courses follow the quarter system. This allows students to focus on 3-4 courses at one time. The majority of courses are considered “accelerated” in which a year’s worth of content is covered in 18 weeks. Yearlong courses (which meet for a full 36 weeks) include all levels of math, advanced placement courses, physical education courses, and some of electives.

Classical Academy partners with parents to prepare students for “College, Career, and Citizenship.” Students have the flexibility to choose a program that best fits their learning style.
