  • Title
    Classical Christian Education Defined: The Quadrivium
    Description
    This article explores the Quadrivium—arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy—and its central role in classical Christian education as a path to wonder, wisdom, and worship. It explains how these mathematical arts form the mind and soul, grounding modern science in a theological vision of a rational, ordered creation held together by Christ. Through the Quadrivium, students learn not merely to calculate, but to perceive truth, beauty, and meaning in God’s world.

    Classical Christian Education Defined: The Trivium
    Description
    This article introduces the Trivium—grammar, logic, and rhetoric—as the foundational language arts of classical Christian education and explains how each cultivates the uniquely human capacities for understanding, reasoning, and persuasive expression. It also illustrates how these arts are intentionally formed at Capstone from the earliest grades through upper school to prepare students for wise, virtuous, and faithful engagement with the world.

    Classical Christian Education Defined: Rich Liberal Arts Studies
    Description
    Classical Christian education is shaped not only by its community habits but by a rich, ordered curriculum rooted in the liberal arts. Unlike modern progressive models, this tradition emphasizes time-tested content and the “art of learning” itself, forming students who can think deeply, communicate clearly, and integrate knowledge across subjects. By grounding all studies in the Trivium and Quadrivium, Capstone aims to cultivate wisdom, virtue, and lifelong adaptability in an ever-changing world.
