We aspire to be a school that is transparent, involves parents, uses technology intentionally, cultivates a deep understanding of history, and disciples students in the Christian faith. Being a private, classical, Christian school offers a unique opportunity to pursue those distinctives and provides a rich alternative for families who share similar values.
To see the scenes of the past truly, we must borrow the eyes of the past. What people did then will mean little to us unless we comprehend their motives, their ideas, their emotions, and the circumstances under which they acted. One of the greatest benefits we can derive from the study of history is the entering into the life and thought of other people in other times and places.
Only a couple of centuries ago, historians were unable to make use of any evidence except oral or written evidence. Where no such evidence was available, they spoke of the period as “prehistoric” and beyond the bounds of history. The term prehistoric is still used today to describe the time in a society or region’s history before the advent of writing, but prehistory is no longer as unknowable as it once was, thanks to the contributions of archaeology, anthropology, linguistics, and genetics.
We study the past because it provides the context we need to understand the present. Our world is increasingly complicated and bewildering. You might, at some point—upon observing something in the news, on social media, or in the culture—find yourself frustrated and wondering, How did things get like this? Usually, the answers to that question lie a bit further back on the timeline. So, to study the process of history is to learn the origin of things.
