The Lower School

Grades 5-8

Our Lower School curriculum offers a timeless, rigorous, and enriching approach to middle-school education. Rooted in the classical tradition, this curriculum emphasizes the development of critical thinking, literacy, and a deep understanding of history, language, and culture. Children are introduced to the Trivium—Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric—fostering a strong foundation in reading, writing, and speaking. Through storytelling, hands-on learning, and an exploration of classical texts, students engage with subjects like math, science, history, and the arts in a way that cultivates both intellectual curiosity and moral character. With a modern emphasis on science, technology, current events, and field-studies our “classically modern” approach nurtures a lifelong love of learning, encouraging students to think clearly, reason logically, and communicate effectively.
