Find the Hero within!
Sword of Freedom and Hero Project scholars begin to find the heroes within themselves, as they learn about the people, issues, and consequences of both the United States Civil War (Sword), and World War II (Hero).
As scholars read classics, biographies, and pivotal speeches, participate in impactful simulations, and create powerful Hero Projects of their own, they are inspired to:
-
Explore principles of war like just cause, right intention, and proper authority
-
Consider public virtue and leadership in times of crisis
-
Witness how families and individuals face life-changing challenges, and
-
Recognize the impactful power of individual choice!

Why do I need to know this? How am I going to use this in life?
Approach math and science in the context of history and discovery! Mathematicians and scientist are real people who have developed the ability to use logic and the habits of a scientist to increase and organize our understanding of the universe and its laws. An education in math and science is powerful - it provides a framework from with problems can be understood and solved!

Simply Music for Scholars
Everyone is musical! All we need is 10 fingers, a voice, and a piano!
Through the Simply Music Piano program, our students will learn how to find their passion and voice in music.
In Foundation 1, students will start from the very beginning by learning 10 songs in 5 different genres- classical, blues, jazz, contemporary, and traditional- without reading a single note! Simply Music is a playing-based method. This means students learn first to see songs through shapes and patterns on the piano and then begin to read music notes. It’s like learning to talk before learning to read! We’ll also start the process of experimenting with our own compositions and improvisations to help each student discover their own voice in music! So come join us to find your love of music!
Mentor: Larisa Johnson
Recommended scholar age: Practice Scholar Group or Apprentice Scholar Group
Date and time will be decided based on registered family's needs!
