Mission and Vision

As a school in the classical liberal arts tradition, the Academy believes that the pursuit of truth always begins with a sense of wonder. Students can love to learn what is true, good, and beautiful through a joyful discovery of the world around them and their own expanding potential.

Academy teachers understand that education is not merely an accumulation of facts or a memorization of what others have thought. Educating the heart and mind includes fostering habits of thinking, feeling, judging, choosing, and acting for a complete and virtuous life. Jackson Hole Classical Academy pursues this vision within the historic Christian tradition that calls each person to love God and man.

The liberal arts curriculum at Jackson Hole Classical Academy is challenging and content-rich. Our students study the core disciplines of mathematics, literature, history, science, and Latin. Students also work through a structured physical education program to develop the body in concert with the mind and soul. Students experience what is beautiful by having the opportunity to practice the fine arts and performing arts of music, drawing, painting, poetry, and drama.

Graduates of Jackson Hole Classical Academy are not merely well prepared for further studies but are well along the road to becoming citizens capable of transmitting to the next generation the ideas and cultural foundations of Western Civilization.
