Child
Our students spend more of their childhood with their families. Schooling is neither the purpose of life nor of childhood, and it has value only to the degree to which it enables the child to fulfill his purpose. It is not fitting for a school to dominate a child’s life or to ask a child to perform exercises that have no value outside the classroom. Parents, not the state, are primarily responsible for their children's academic, moral, and spiritual education.
Student
Our approach actively engages students with the literature, sacred texts, and philosophical inquiries that have shaped Western civilization. We help students develop a broad and coherent intellectual foundation for principled influence after graduation.
Thinker
A GPS or compass approach to education? We seek to provide students a compass and the tools to navigate a well-lived life.
Servant Leader
Students, staff, and families partner with local and global organizations that serve the lost and the forgotten through hands-on service, project work, and mission trips.
WELCOME TO TWELVE STONES!
Your children are growing in many ways; as students, thinkers, and servant-leaders. Twelve Stones Classical Christian School is an alternative way to provide an education for your child. We provide two days of on-campus instruction plus lesson plans for two to three days of parent-mentored instruction at home. Twelve Stones teachers are available for questions and help on home days and provide all grading and planning.
Classical education was developed by the early Greeks, but it came to fruition in the Christian church. Therefore, to speak of classical education is also to speak of Christian education. The best of the ancient Greeks and Romans desired to live lives of piety and virtue, and with the coming of Christ, their imperfect vision of man was fulfilled. The cardinal virtues of prudence, temperance, justice, and fortitude were crowned with the theological virtues of faith, hope, and love.
