At KCCS, we have embarked on a difficult journey of offering a private education. But the goal of the kind of education we are giving our children is that it would equip them with a very public faith. Please join us in this endeavour.
Training the Soul
Worldview: The Critical Ingredient Behind Education
There are some who might view such questions as irrelevant, or an exercise in overthinking. Others may deem their children resilient enough to withstand whatever consequences may come about by not thinking about them. The problem here is that when we don’t make decisions based on convictions, we will likely make them based on convenience (the distance, cost, or size of a school). But what if the answers to such questions carried massive implications for your child’s future? What if an educational institution’s “soil” was the most critical factor to the detriment, or flourishing, of their students?

Imitation, Memory, Love: What Classical Teachers Can Learn from Music Lessons
For classical educators striving to “integrate the disciplines,” music provides an invaluable instrument of integration. Music studies harmonize with every core discipline of he curriculum: the music of various periods vocalizes the movements of history, the formal structures of music correspond to the formal structures of poetry, the theory of music applies principles of mathematics, the physics of music makes audible the laws of science.
Classical Ed: What To Think or How To Think?
Christian education demands that we teach students what to love and how to love, for love is simply the greatest kind of knowledge. A classical education aims to train the affections and show a man how to “rightly order his loves” (ordo amoris), though a man cannot order his loves until he knows what they are.
Board Announcement: We've Hired Our Principal!
On behalf of the Board, it is my pleasure to announce the hiring of Rylan Auger as our first principal. This position of leadership is foundational for the healthy functioning and flourishing of the school. As such, we would like to share some of the convictions that guided the Board’s decision, and why we consider Rylan to be an excellent fit for this role.
