Paideia Classical Academy is an Orthodox Christian school ministry open to all children that focuses on virtues, the love of the beautiful and the love of the good. At Paideia we nurture children in mind, body, and soul.

Because Proverbs: 22:6 teaches: “Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it.”, we seek to:

• Enculturate the souls of our youth in “the beautiful and the good”.
• Spread the love of learning, which grows deep roots once seeds are planted.
• Use Christian Paideia as exhorted by St. Paul in Ephesians 6:4: “Bring up children in the training and admonition of the Lord.”
• Prepare our children for their eternal life in the heavenly kingdom.
