Logic School

The logic school years are a season of formation, strengthening, and joyful challenge. The logic school curriculum builds on Grammar school learning and begins to train students in ordered thinking. Students are taught to see relationships between ideas, ask better questions, reason carefully, and express themselves with growing clarity.

Logic is to philosophy what a telescope is to astronomy or a cookbook to a meal.
–Peter Kreeft

As logic school student begin to view the world with a more critical eye, class structure affords more freedom for students to question and challenge. Teachers, through direct instruction and helpful guidance, give students the tools to reason logically. Faculty nurture both atmosphere and discipline, helping students discover that hard work can become lighter when shared in community and undertaken with decided joy.

Chatt Classical’s logic school culture emphasizes responsibility for person, place, belongings, relationships, and neighbors in need. We expect students to act with respect and kindness toward others, and we know that all members experience joy in this kind of place.

Logic is not created by God or man; rather it is an attribute of God.
It is not over God or independent of Him.”
