Curriculum Overview
At Porter Academy of Arts and Sciences, our curriculum bridges the timeless rigor of classical education with modern innovation. By thoughtfully blending the enduring wisdom of classical texts with contemporary educational strategies, we create a unique learning experience that honors tradition while meeting the needs of today’s students.
Our Approach
Blending the Old with the New
At Porter Academy, we design our own curriculum to combine the best of classical education with fresh, forward-thinking methods. Grounded in the great works of history, literature, and philosophy, our program challenges students to think deeply, communicate effectively, and develop a lifelong love of learning. By building on classical foundations, we equip students with the skills and knowledge to thrive in a changing world.
Classical Foundations
We center our program on the great texts of Western civilization, exploring the works of authors, philosophers, and theologians who have shaped human thought. The classical Trivium (Grammar, Logic, Rhetoric) serves as our guide, cultivating mastery in critical thinking, communication, and analysis.
Modern Relevance
While deeply rooted in tradition, our curriculum also embraces modern tools and approaches, preparing students to navigate an interconnected and dynamic world. This blend allows us to stay adaptable and innovative while remaining true to our classical roots.
