Curriculum Overview
SGCA Hybrid Model
Sola Gratia Classical Academy Inc. is a Christian classical hybrid homeschool community with a more gentle college preparatory purpose. We believe that the best way to educate our students is with a classical education based on wisdom that has stood the test of time.
Classic Education Journey
As students progress through the upper elementary, logic, and rhetoric levels we increase our academic rigor to reflect a gentle college preparatory level of education, increasing their ability to become highly academic students. Through embodied learning and diligent pacing, we help our students develop a relationship with what they study, while also providing an orderly and purposeful introduction to the Liberal Arts.
Acquisition of Academic Skills
We maintain our pursuit of excellence in the classical tradition. We put practices in place to guide virtue formation, recognizing that virtue formation must accompany academic instruction in order to reach wisdom. Christ is at the center of all we teach. We are educating hearts and heads. In the high school years, many of our classes are at the honors/AP level, allowing for students to take some AP exams if they should so choose. We seek to be a college preparatory community with our focus on preparing students to be successful in college both academically, and as students of faith who are able to articulate, defend, and persuade for the gospel.
Course Offerings
Leadership Opportunities
At Sola Gratia, we want to equip our children to be future leaders able to take what they learn back into society. We also offer leadership and mentoring opportunities through our Senatores Solae Gratiae program. This program provides an Academic Mentor Advisor for students, a student council where they represent the K-12 student body with opportunity to lead, mentor, and serve throughout the community and beyond.
Students must meet the academic and behavior standard requirements to become a Senatores. Older students are encouraged to serve as mentors to younger students and given opportunities to do so throughout the year to develop leadership skills.
