Do you want to simplify your homeschooling?


Learn more about the classical education method and get an overview of the Classical Conversations program. Be encouraged to know there are other parents out there, like you, wanting their children to have the benefit of a classical education. Students already in the program will be there to show you what they have already learned this year!


Classical Conversations' grammar students learn a Timeline with 160 events, US Presidents, memory work in History, Geography, Science, Math, English, Bible, and Latin. Each week, children have a chance to practice their oral presentation skills, participate in a fine arts lesson, as well as a science project. Older grammar students also have the option of taking classes in writing and English grammar. High school level classes meet for debates and discussions to encourage rhetoric thinking through subjects from a Biblical perspective.


* A copy of The Core, by Leigh Bortins, the founder of Classical Conversations, will be given away to anyone who comes with 2 friends!
