Curriculum Of Valor
An Overview
Valor Classical Academy is returning to the curricula, materials, and methods that have traditionally been used to educate young men and women throughout the history of the world. At Valor, you’ll find teacher-led classrooms, low technology, intensive phonics, traditional mathematics instruction, primary source documents and great books, and the development of the student’s whole person - heart, body, mind, and soul.
The Hillsdale K-12 curriculum provides the framework for Valor’s academic program, which emphasizes the core disciplines of math, science, history, and language arts, including phonics, writing, and literature. Music, visual arts, and foreign languages are also studied. Valor’s curriculum emphasizes intellectual rigor, human virtue, moral character, and responsible citizenship.
