Christ-centered, collaborative education that cultivates virtue, sharpens minds, and prepares students for purposeful, faithful living.
Deuteronomy 6:6-7 (ESV):
"And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise."

Our Approach
Partnering with parents + shaping hearts and minds.
At SPA, we believe that parents are the God-given primary educators of their children. Our role is to come alongside families, equipping them with a rich and time-tested approach to education that nurtures both the heart and the mind.
Our “one room schoolhouse” elementary classrooms divides children into lower elementary & upper elementary classes. Younger students learn from their older peers, while older students grow in leadership as they nurture, guide, and assist those who are younger. All of our students annually engage with the same historical time period, literary themes, and scientific fields to keep families close & connected regardless of age!
Curriculum
rooted in truth + cultivating wisdom.
We offer a carefully curated curriculum and comprehensive lesson plans for parents that seamlessly connect home to classroom. We draw from a variety of high-quality publishers to offer a rigorous and well-rounded curriculum that meets or exceeds state and national standards.
Our core subjects—Math, Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies/History—are taught alongside daily Bible instruction, ensuring that every discipline is studied through the lens of God’s truth. Whether analyzing great works of literature, solving mathematical challenges, conducting hands-on scientific inquiry, or exploring history, students are taught to see the world through the framework of truth, goodness, and beauty.
