Veritas Academy has provided a classical, Christian education for part-time and full-time students since 1996. Our curriculum is rigorous and stresses literary excellence along with sound reasoning in the Biblical and Western tradition. We provide students with the intellectual challenge that will prepare them to both proclaim and defend the faith.
We are committed to our mission yet flexible in our methods to encourage and assist families to fulfill their God-given responsibility to raise their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Veritas Academy provides a rich, classical, Christian, education in just three classroom days, affording families the time they need to serve in ministry, and enjoy hobbies and activities.
We are associate members of the Association of Classical and Christian Schools. The primary mission of the ACCS is to promote, establish, and equip schools committed to a classical approach to education in light of a Christian worldview grounded in the Word of God.
The Head of School should seek God and be used by God to provide educational and administrative leadership to the school. They will set the direction for all educational and administrative activities in collaboration with the other board members and teachers. Their teaching and interpersonal skills will help guide students and teachers to reach their full potential. They should have good time management and delegation skills that empower the whole school community to work together. They should be a Spirit-dependent and Spirit-led leader (Philippians 2:5) capable of coaching and developing others.
