What is Classical Christian Education?

What is Classical Christian Education?

A question we often receive at Veritas is “how is Classical Christian education different from the traditional public-school approach?” Classical Christian Education (CCE) is a time-tested approach to learning that seeks to cultivate wisdom, virtue, and a love for truth through a rigorous curriculum rooted in the classical liberal arts and a biblical worldview. This method of education emphasizes the development of critical thinking, eloquent communication, and moral character in students.

At the heart of Classical Christian Education is the Trivium, a three-stage model that aligns with the natural developmental phases of children:

  1. Grammar Stage (Elementary Years): During this stage, young students focus on memorization and foundational knowledge. They absorb facts in subjects such as language, history, mathematics, and science, much like building blocks for later understanding.
  2. Logic Stage (Middle School Years): As students mature, they begin to ask “why” and engage in analytical thinking. This stage emphasizes reasoning, argumentation, and the relationships between different ideas, particularly in subjects like formal logic and critical analysis.
  3. Rhetoric Stage (High School Years): In the final stage, students learn to express themselves persuasively and articulately. They synthesize their knowledge and refine their ability to write, speak, and debate effectively.

Beyond academic rigor, Classical Christian Education is distinctively Christ-centered. Every subject is taught with the understanding that all truth is God’s truth, and students are encouraged to see the world through the lens of Scripture. This integration of faith and learning fosters not only intellectual development but also spiritual and moral formation.

In an age of fragmented education, Classical Christian Education offers a holistic and transformative approach—one that seeks not just to inform, but to form students into knowledgeable and virtuous men and women.

Open enrollment is now available for the 2025-2026 school year.  For those interested in learning more about Classical Christian education at Veritas, please visit our website at www.veritasfallon.org.
