Now Accepting Applications

Would you like to partner with Knox Classical School to give your student a rigorous classical Christian education that will equip him to know and love the truth?  We're accepting applications for the 2024—2025 school year for kindergarten through third grade until May 15, 2024.

Step One:  Attend an Info Meeting

Attending an info meeting is the first step in our application process.  We'll introduce you to our Board of Directors and administrators, describe our classical Christian methodology, and explain how our collaborative model gives your student the best of traditional schooling and homeschooling.  You'll also have a chance to preview our robust curriculum, and you'll be invited to apply after attending the meeting.

Info Meeting RSVP

Step Two:  Complete the Family and Student Applications and Pay the Application Fee

We'll email you links to our Family Application and Student Application after you attend an info meeting.  Complete those applications and pay a one-time $150 application fee to apply for admission.  


As a part of your Family Application, we'll ask both parents to read one of two great, short works on classical Christian education:  An Introduction to Classical Education, by Christopher Perrin, or The Lost Tools of Learning, by Dorothy Sayers.  We'll also ask you to read carefully our Knox Classical School Family Handbook.

Step Three:  Schedule a Family Interview

Our admissions team reviews application materials on a rolling basis and will contact advancing families to schedule a family interview.  This gives us a chance to get to know you better and confirm that our classical, Christian, collaborative model is a good fit for your family.  


Before this interview, you'll administer a brief academic assessment to your student to provide his or her teacher with information about his or her academic strengths and weaknesses.


You'll receive an email within two weeks of your interview with an acceptance or denial of admission.

Why Choose Classical, Christian Education?

"Is not the great defect of our education today … that although we often succeed in teaching our pupils 'subjects,' we fail lamentably on the whole in teaching them how to think?  They learn everything, except the art of learning." 
— Dorothy Sayers, The Lost Tools of Learning

Knox Classical School admits students of any race, sex, color, or national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally afforded or made available to students at the school.  Knox Classical School does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, color, or national or ethnic origin in administering the school’s educational policies and practices; admission, financial assistance, and scholarship policies; or athletic and other school-administered programs.  Knox Classical School reserves the right to select students on the basis of academic performance. 

As a religious educational organization, Knox Classical School reserves the right to use religion in hiring and admission because of its objective, mission, and vision as a Christian, faith-based institution.  Knox Classical School believes that it partners with parents seeking to fulfill their responsibility under Deuteronomy 6 and Ephesians 6 by providing a Christian education to children.  Knox Classical School thus discriminates on the basis of religion and conduct based on its religious beliefs.  This includes the religious commitment, lifestyle choices, and personal conduct of students and families, as well as their willingness to abide by Knox Classical School’s policies and cooperate with its administrators.  At times, a family’s lifestyle may be in such conflict with or opposition to Knox Classical School’s Statement of Faith that the school may, within its sole discretion, determine that it is not in the best interest of the student or the school to admit the student or continue the student’s enrollment.  For how “[d]o two walk together, unless they have agreed to meet?”  (Amos 3:3).
