REGINA LUMINIS ACADEMY
2011-2012 CURRICULUM OVERVIEW
CURRICULUM PHILOSOPHY:
The curriculum at Regina Luminis Academy reflects the Academy’s mission to form children who are faithful to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church and educated in the classical liberal arts tradition. To this end, the Catholic faith is joyfully present in every aspect of the classroom. The curriculum is structured to reflect the medieval Trivium and thereby cultivate a rational and disciplined mind. Grammar and logic stages are completed at the elementary school level to prepare the student for the rhetoric stage studied in the high school years. Accordingly, course content in the humanities is integrated so factual content is reinforced and interconnections are established between literature, history, and religion. Moreover, the indebtedness of the humanities to the Latin language is highlighted by the student’s mastery of that language. The course of study at Regina Luminis Academy produces a student who is trained in Christian virtue, and who is one with the tradition of learning that sustains Western Civilization. The end result is gentlemen and ladies who are at home in the Catholic Church, at home in the cultural heritage of the West, and ready to evangelize and undertake positions of leadership in the twenty-first century.
