Upper School 9-12

In the Rhetoric stage, students put together their acquired knowledge and skills in the creation and articulate expression of their own ideas and begin to formulate their own worldviews. Classical education is incomplete without the final phase of acquiring wisdom and developing the capacity for beauty and clarity of expression. Students will refine their ability to articulate their knowledge and will learn how to share and defend their faith, so that they might shape our world for Christ in the next generation.
