WHAT IS A CLASSICAL TRIP?

​

​

What we can learn

A Classical trip focuses on the roots of our culture, giving specific emphasis to the development of the humanities, arts, and broad aspects of science as they culminated in the world we know.  The trips to Italy, Greece, and Turkey explore the development of our Western culture and it's worldwide influence around us.  Emphasis is particularly given to Christianity's historical impact through Church and society on the Western mindset and how modern followers of Christ can impact our culture today.



Christian emphasis

A Biblical worldview provides the context for understanding, organizing, and relating to the world around us.  Additionally, it provides the basis for establishing our purpose, both corporately and individually, in this nation and beyond.

 

Who can go on these trips? 

Trips are designed specifically for Challenge 3 & 4 students

Other homeschoolers are welcome

Parents and siblings (16 or older) of students are welcome.  Homeschooling is not a requirement. 

Christian students from the public school are welcome.

​

Context

A specific emphasis is placed on ancient Classical learning and Challenge 4 including: The Illiad, The Odyssey, The Aeneid, Oedipus Rex, Boorstin's The Discoverers,  as well as a New Testament emphasis on the missionary journeys and writings of the Apostle Paul.

Socratic contemplation

​

Students who have studied Homer's Illiad and Odyssey and read Virgil's Aeneid take time to discuss, probe, assess, and evaluate the application of themes, principles, and lessons learned.

    

Engaging discussions help draw out new perspectives, clarify ideas and meanings addressed in class.

The Summer 2025 trip is our 13th year and 19th trip to Italy Greece Turkey
