Why Classical Education?
At Porter Hill Academy of Arts and Sciences, we partner with families to guide students through each stage of the classical model of learning. In the grammar stage, we lay a strong foundation of knowledge through memorization, repetition, and joyful discovery. In the logic stage, we cultivate discernment and critical thinking as students learn to reason clearly and understand cause and effect. In the rhetoric stage, we help students express themselves with clarity, grace, and conviction. Through this time-tested approach, we prepare students to think biblically, excel in their studies, and live lives of wisdom and faithfulness, equip to glorify God and serve their communities with purpose.

Porter Hill Academy of Arts and Sciences is committed to partnering with families to educate students who think biblically, excel academically, and live faithfully.
