About Capstone
We serve you as stewards of your child's education for the glory of God and the joy of your child.
Headmaster's Welcome
We are truly grateful for your interest in Capstone Classical Academy and look forward to the opportunity to partner with you in the education of your children.
At Capstone, we seek to steward the great deposit of faith given to us in Jesus Christ as well as the rich inheritance of wisdom, virtue, and cultural learning passed down through the great books of Western civilization. We believe that education does not merely shape the mind but forms a person’s affections towards the True, the Good, and the Beautiful.
Our desire is for your children to grow to love God deeply, reason carefully, engage the world with wonder, and wrestle with the enduring ideas, stories, and traditions that have shaped our civilization for the glory of God and the benefit of themselves and their community.
We look forward to partnering with you in this joyful and meaningful work.
May You Never Cease to Wonder,
William C. Rutherford, PhD
