In this episode of Growing Classically, Ryan Gilmore and Jonathan Winn explore the mission of Oak Grove Classical Academy and the convictions that shape its approach to education. They discuss what it means to partner with parents, provide a genuinely Christ-centered education, embrace the classical tradition, and use the university model to strengthen both students and families. They also consider how education should cultivate more than academic knowledge, inspiring students to love learning, face life’s challenges with courage and character, and apply God’s truth in their spheres of influence. Ultimately, the conversation reminds us that the purpose of education extends beyond college or career preparation to the formation of students who grow in wisdom and are increasingly conformed to the image of Christ.
The most effective and vital partnership in education is not between the teacher and the student, but between the teacher and the student's parents.
