The essence of classical education lies in the study of Latin and, potentially, Greek, alongside an exploration of Greek and Roman culture, mathematics, and language arts. This educational framework has prevailed for the past two millennia; however, it has only been in the last 150 years that we have diverged from these foundational principles. This approach is not elitist; rather, it is the very education that empowered the authors of the Constitution and the Federalist Papers to communicate their ideas clearly, ensuring that even farmers could grasp the concepts presented. Our Founding Fathers shaped America as we know it, and it is our children who will determine its future. In an effort to contribute to the revival of the truth, goodness, and beauty that once defined America, we seek to reinstate the educational system that grounded our nation's founders.
We believe our framework of a Classical, Christian, and Conservative education sets our students up for success.
Litchfield Christian School has been such a beautiful blessing to our family. LCS is a Christ-centered school that challenges students academically, nurtures their creativity, promotes a positive learning environment, and contributes to their spiritual growth. LCS is very supportive, and they encourage their students and their families. Our daughter came into LCS completely broken and empty. Public school had taken a drastic toll on her mental health. She had pleaded with us for over a year to homeschool her. We were at a loss. Our daughter is a very social person, and we knew she needed more. We decided to check out LCS as an alternative. From the very moment we stepped inside LCS, we could see and feel the genuine love. EVERYONE felt as if they belonged. Before our day of observing was over, she had asked if she could please come to LCS. She was smiling and said this place is my kind of place. It's definitely been just that!
Today she is thriving, and she is truly enjoying herself. She loves to go to school, and she loves all of the teachers. She has made good friends and is blossoming in all areas of life. She's even started singing on stage during chapel. This has been the best decision we could have ever made as parents for our daughter. We are incredibly thankful for this opportunity in our hometown, and we truly appreciate that LCS offers grades K-12. How blessed we are to be a part of Litchfield Christian School. We look forward to many more amazing years here.
