"I was lucky enough to be born into a wonderful family (in both the nuclear and extended sense), and to attend a quite extraordinary school from a very young age. My family has always cultivated my education, and supported by achievements, but it is at Liberty Classical Academy that I eventually understood what learning truly is. Liberty Classical Academy is a classical Christian private school, which students attend two-three days a week. The students are then taught by their parents the rest of the week. Following the instructors' guidelines. The school is based on the idea that there is a grammar stage, logic stage, and a rhetoric stage. You learn facts, then you lean causes and meaning, and are finally able to communicate your ideas. LCA's foundational principle is teaching its students how to think, not what to think, and I thrived in this environment.

At LCA, I learned philosophy from Plato, chemistry from Lavoisier, humor from Cervantes, and poetry from Homer. I learned how science, music, art and Government are intricately connected and cannot be separated without losing meaning. I learned to look at the stars and see Pegasus, to look at a snowy field and hear the poetry of Frost, to read a news story and recall a similar event our modern times have all but forgotten. I learned to love knowledge. I found I could dig deeper and understand, follow a path of logic and find a mistake, speak and have my opinions heard. Liberty Classical Academy instilled in me a deep and passionate longing to know and understand.
