Augustine Classical Academy
A Classical Christian School serving the capital district of new yorK
With great excitement, Augustine Classical Academy joins the 25 year-old movement to revive classical education in America. Building schools on the methods and philosophies that trained many of the greatest minds in human history, classical Christian education is reclaiming academic excellence and restoring the church’s prominent role in the intellectual community. The culmination of many years of dreaming, praying, and planning for a school that is academically excellent, philosophically sound, and biblically consistent, ACA opened its doors in September 2009. For those who are new to classical education, please take the time to explore our site, familiarize yourself with our offerings, and consider possible involvement with our school as a parent, teacher, or supporter. Contact us via email (admin@augustineca.org) to schedule an appointment with our headmaster or to discuss the role you can play in establishing this vibrant academic institution.
Welcome to Augustine Classical Academy
The 2011-2012 school year began in our new home at 52 William St. Mechanicville, NY. Our student body has grown by 50% and we welcome our first classes of Kindergarteners and 12th graders.
APPLICATIONS DUE
FEBRUARY 15TH for 2012-2013 Enrollment and Tuition Assistance
This seemingly early date allows the Board of Directors to set the direction for next year in terms of opening classes at the grammar level, combining classes in the Upper School, and hiring new faculty. Because we hold a commitment to keeping class sizes small, decisions made at this date may preclude additional students from enrolling at particular grade levels at a later date. Families who are interested in enrolling students at Augustine at any level from Kindergarten to 12th grade should submit applications by the February 15th deadline.
