Upper School
Grades 7 – 12
Our “Upper School” includes students in the Logic and Rhetoric stages. Through a robust liberal arts curriculum, they are mastering the tools of discernment, reason, and articulation.
Logic Stage (7-8)
Students of the Logic Stage love to argue, and we teach them how to do it well! They'll learn how to identify flaws in opponents' arguments and avoid committing fallacies themselves in Logic classes. They will continue to deepen their understanding of various worldviews through Integrated Humanities courses.
Rhetoric Stage (9-12)
Students at this stage of their development long to express themselves. After gaining knowledge and understanding and spending years imitating the works of masters, students are expressing their own opinions and judgments in a winsome and persuasive manner.
My daughter loves VCA and all she is able to do at school. She enjoys the instruction tremendously, and the friendships she's made are invaluable.
