We, classical teachers need to allow students to excel so others can respond and excel in turn. Teacher prudence allows moments for students to stand-out while giving hope to others to emulate, stretch, and achieve.

Poll Question:

The digital revolution is remaking nearly every aspect of modern life. A top concern of parents, educators and sociologists is screen time. How much is too much? The question points to a larger problem: American children are weirdly held hostage indoors.

The great heroes and heroines of the West—from Moses, to Aeneas, to Mary—all heard an inner calling that corresponded to an exterior reality, a heroism marked by sacrifice and obedience to the greatness that they were uniquely created to achieve. We can teach young men and women to listen for that inner voice, measure it to objective reality, and call on the best that has been thought, said, and done as a witness of calling and response.
These are all young men and women that have a unique calling from God. We need to help them learn and grow to listen to God's voice.

Relevance is found through connection between student and teacher around what is true, lasting, and a profound respect for one another and what is being studied that is greater than the self. This work is not visionary fluff, but eminently practical.

What is at the heart of classical education?
The Trivium.
The Trivium describes the stages of learning necessary for mastery of any subject, corresponding to the natural process of child development.
The Trivium is the study of grammar, logic, and rhetoric, which train mind and tongue in the critical thinking, clear communication, and eloquence necessary for a well-rounded life.

Students do not become readers simply by consuming stories or ideas, but by wrestling with words, rereading difficult passages, marking the text, and learning to think alongside great authors with an active and disciplined mind.
