What Do We Offer?
The Classical Academies seek to personalize the learning for each and every student. This is accomplished through the partnership that parents share with credentialed teachers and the academic programming we offer students. Each of our campuses offers a variety of flexible programs, including traditional in-seat, independent study, and a blend or hybrid of these programs. The following flexible options are available:
Transitional Kindergarten: Pre-kindergarten program

Flex Track: Multi-grade Combination Class (3-5 and 6-8)
Combination class where students have the flexibility to work within their individual academic levels and interests while pursuing mastery of state standards within an integrated, project based learning environment. Using a 3-year, chronological study of history as the backbone for learning, students conduct multidisciplinary, real-world investigations that incorporate reading, writing, research, technology, math and science. Parents partner at home by guiding discovery, actively discussing history/literature topics, and sharpening math fundamentals through teacher created lessons. In class, students work together to take their knowledge to deeper levels of application, evaluation and synthesis via simulations, group activities/discussions, blogging, and other engaging projects.
