"Do you often come across people for whom, all their lives, a

'subject' remains a 'subject,' divided by watertight bulkheads

from all other 'subjects,' so that they experience very great

difficulty in making an  immediate mental connection between

algebra and detective fiction, sewage disposal and the price of

salmon, or, more generally, between such spheres of knowledge

as philosophy and economics, or chemistry and art?"                           

The Lost Tools of Learning by Dorothy Sayers.

 

At Geneva Academy, our students are taught to see the world, not as a                                            series of unrelated "subjects," as Miss Sayers laments above, but rather to acquire the tools of learning so that they might be equipped to become lifelong students of God's glorious creation.

 

We seek to individually challenge children at all levels and to teach them how to learn. Through a proven, centuries-old pattern of education called the Trivium, students are taught using specific methods which correlate to their natural, God-given developmental stages. All subjects are taught as parts of an integrated whole with scripture at the center as students are encouraged to become "thinking Christians" and to develop a solid, biblical, world view.
