About
Covington Classical Academy offers bright, curious students an opportunity to pursue a rigorous education rooted in liberal arts and the classical tradition. A Classical Liberal Arts Curriculum returns to the basics. Students will study four years of Math, Latin, English, History/Social Studies and Science. They will also study the arts and oratory. This focus on the fundamentals helps students build critical thinking. On every Friday in a week without a holiday (like Presidents Day), we have a special, all day program we call Fifth Day. These fall into four categories: the Physical Activity, STEM, Humanities, and Service. Faculty members lead the activities, sharing their passion with the students and modeling the traits of lifelong learning. The Fifth Day follows Dr. David Kolb's Experiential Learning Model which makes learning more relatable and leads to the development of skills for lifelong learning. While other schools have moved away from learning outside the classroom, Covington Classical Academy embraces it as an important part of a classical liberal arts education.
