Classical Christian Education

Summit Classical Christian School is a PreK-12 Christian liberal arts school in the classical tradition. We seek to teach an integrated worldview with all academic subjects finding their purpose in Christ and His Scriptures.  The rich tradition of the classical liberal arts curriculum is designed for cultivating virtue along with moral imagination.

Classical

We believe that a holistic education requires study of both the arts of language via the Trivium (grammar, logic, rhetoric) and the arts of mathematics via the Quadrivium (arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, and music). With methods of classical instruction, students acquire “the tools of learning”:  the ability to listen, read, interpret, analyze, and communicate clearly, liberating them to continue as lifelong learners wherever God calls them to serve.

Christian

We believe that all knowledge comes from Christ and every academic subject is a means to Christian wisdom and piety. While we believe that college and occupation preparation is valuable, the most important measure is that our relationships with God, our neighbors and our communities are marked by virtue and grace. Thus, the liberal arts are formed within the context of a thoroughly Christian philosophy and theology governed by the revelation of God in Christ Jesus as found in the Holy Scriptures.
