Understanding Classical Christian Education at Telos

Classical Christian Education (CCE) is a time-tested educational system which establishes a biblical worldview, works with the natural phases of child development, cultivates the seven Christian virtues, trains students in reasoning through the Trivium (Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric), and engages children in “the great conversation” through the historical Great Books. At Telos CCS, we strive to create a love of truth, goodness, and beauty, and to teach children that all knowledge comes from the Lord and is to be used to glorify Him.
Memorization of Scripture and catechization using the London Baptist Catechism of 1689 are just some of the ways we help our students develop a holistic view of all things from a Biblical perspective.
