Classical Christian Education is a movement to recover the traditional goals, contents, and methods of education that Western Civilization developed over the centuries and have largely been neglected in our own day. Western Civilization is the cultural tradition created by the marriage of Greek and Roman philosophy and literature with the Christian religion, and its educational tradition focuses on the development of wisdom and virtue in the student through meditation on the Good, the True, and the Beautiful. Through the study of the greatest that has been done and thought and said by Western writers and thinkers, we pass this cultural inheritance on to our children.
