| The goal of Veritas Classical Schools is
to offer home schooling families a unique complement to their home study
programs with an emphasis on a classical Christian model of education. Veritas
Classical Schools functions in the role of tutor, |
|
assisting parents in their educational roles. Each student attends the Veritas
Classical Schools campus of their choice one day per week during the school
year, according to his or her age group. |
| The purpose of Veritas Classical Schools
is to help mold students into thinkers, young men and women who do not simply
"regurgitate" the information they have been fed but rather who analyze,
critique, and affect the world by applying Biblical wisdom to their lives,
families, and communities. Veritas Schools offer homeschooling families a
unique complement to their home study programs by providing one day per week of
classroom instruction, with an emphasis on classical as well as traditional
subjects taught from a distinctly Christian perspective.

It is our goal that Veritas students learn to THINK, biblically and logically,
not just to blindly memorize seemingly unrelated and irrelevant facts required
to do "well" on tests. The Veritas student is taught to be a lifelong learner,
to consistently evaluate and critique relevant issues, and to always seek to
skillfully communicate his thoughts. All students at Veritas Schools learn
factual and philosophical truth, learn to evaluate the messages they are
receiving from the world around them, and learn to defend their beliefs in a
persuasive manner. |
