Our people write about classical Christian education.
Every school has a set of foundational beliefs and principles that governs its content and practices. What are the spoken and unspoken assumptions and principles that govern all that we do at Capstone? In First Things, our teachers, staff, and leadership write about the foundational principles of classical and Christian education.
“My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.” James 1:19-20

“Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.” Ephesians 4:29

Human sexuality, marriage, the family, and the divine design for human relationships of all kinds are foundational to any culture, and as these go, so goes that culture. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that as these go, so goes a civilization. Our cultural moment is marked by great confusion, misinformation, and disordered sexual ethics. Now, as much as any era before ours, direct instruction regarding this central human issue is essential for young people.

As we continue to review the founding principles or “first things” of Capstone Classical Academy, we come to our commitment to foster a community where every individual is treated according to the dignity they have because they are made in the image of God.

We are participating in a historic moment. For those who joined the Capstone journey before there were students, teachers, or a campus under construction, this moment may seem surreal. For some, it may have seemed like a long wait. For others, it may seem like just yesterday that we gathered as a school community for the first time at Rheault Farm.
