Magnet Program for Classical Studies

For students in grades K-12

At Colearn Magnet Program for Classical Studies, students engage in content-rich literature, a deep understanding of history, the fundamental principles in math and science, and a deep appreciation for art and music.

Engaging Beauty and Truth through studies of the Classical Trivium

The Classical Trivium is a methodology that describes the learning stages of children as they mature. Students focus in each stage to best develop a knowledgeable, thoughtful, and well rounded child.  There are 3 stages represented in the Trivium: Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric.  

Grammar Stage (grades K-5)- At this stage, students learn through memorization, soaking up information through song, games, and exploration of their world. This stage lays the foundation of all future areas of study in a child's life.

Logic Stage (Middle School)- In the Logic stage, students are encouraged to dive deep, ask questions, and analyze information. During this stage, there is an emphasis on using logic to ask questions, analyze and organize facts that they have learned. 

Rhetoric Stage (High School)- In this stage, students are ready to use the skills laid in the foundations of their learning to form conclusions and to express themselves with confidence. Students are taught to analyze and synthesize their own thoughts, beliefs and opinions.

Why work towards a plateau when you can develop peaks?

To illustrate our philosophy, we believe traditional school supports students to plateau -- educating the same foundations in the same subjects. But we believe the future belongs to students who find their peaks.
