Welcome to Paideia Academy
Our vision at Paideia Academy is to assist parents in bringing up their children in the "paideia" of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4) by providing academic instruction for their children that is distinctly classical and Christ-centered.
Utilizing classical tools of learning and a Christian worldview approach to education, we desire to graduate young men and women who, as servants of Christ, are equipped to be critical thinkers and able communicators capable of engaging the culture with the claims of the gospel.
