Happy Fall

November is upon us. Fall is in full swing, and we have moved already into the second semester of our 2016-2017 school year. Time flies...

Our school has grown again this year; we are now up to almost 70 students and are pretty much at full capacity, with only a few spaces left for transfer students in during the school year.

We are also bless to have 7 graduating seniors this year, as well as 8 that will graduate from Kindergarten into 1st grade.

What a joy these Kindergartners are! I have had the privilege to teach them for the last few weeks as we look for the perfect teacher. These students are eager to learn, very bright, and full of energy. They definitely keep me on my feet!

God has continued to bless our endeavor to help families keep their children at home with them and educate them based on a biblical world view of who Christ is in our lives. We are so thankful for the opportunity to be able to pour into each of these students!

Happy Fall!

Does Classroom Design Matter?

What's on my mind? The million dollar question: How do kids learn better? To answer this burning question, we often look at the quality of the curriculum used, the expertise and instructional approach of the teachers, the complexity of the tasks and activities.

What about the learning environment itself that provides the setting in which learning takes place? Research confirms the strong emotional connection humans have to buildings and places. Optimal school design considers 3 paramaters that greatly affect students' reactions to their environment: Complexity, Color, and Texture.

Complexity of design with order and purpose stimulates the young mind and allows for many moments of discovery throughtout the day. Color intensifies certain emotional reactions keeping the mind active or helping it focus on tasks. Psychologists have linked the use of color with brain development, increased attention span and accelerated learning. Texture with the interplay of hard and soft surfaces in a classroom is stimulating while allowing for creative play and learning opportunities.

So, what classroom do you think your studend will excell in? The traditional room full of neatly arranged rows of desks facing the teacher's desk and blackboard? Or, the one posted here?

At Adelphia Classical Christian Academy, we pick the fun and colorful one in the picture above. This is our 1st and 2nd grade classroom and one of many exciting rooms we offer on our campus (at Zion Community Church in Orange). Come and see for yourself!

Adelphia Classical Christian Academy (ACCA) is a true hybrid: balancing the best of a full time Christian school with the best of homeschooling. Students meet on campus 3 days a week for full time instruction. The other two days the learning takes place at home under the direction of the parents. The school establishes the curriculum, and provides the framework for the parent to be a success while at home.

We are homeschool-minded
We strive to keep the balance between home life/family time and academics. We feel strongly about the family unit and doing things as a family together and want to do everything we can to promote that in your homeschooling endeavor. We do not believe in homework for the sake of busywork. We desire the students to learn and structure our class time and assignments with the goal of maintaining that balance.

We are Christ-centered
The core mission of ACCA is to provide a Christian classical education that supports the development and enrichment of the mind and spirit, preparing students to make an impact for Christ in their communities and the world. We believe in a well-structured partnership between families and the school, encouraging and training parents how to be more effectively involved in their child’s learning.

We are a classical school
Our curriculum is thoroughly biblical, and utilizes the classical approach. The classical approach is in alignment with the natural developmental abilities of a child. Children quickly absorb facts during their younger years (Grades 1-4), learn to understand and analyze information during their middle school years (grades 5-8), and begin to develop their reasoning, synthesizing, and presentation skills during their high school years (grades 9-12). These three major developmental stages are also known as the grammar stage, the dialectic/logic stage, and the rhetoric stage, or otherwise known collectively as the Trivium. Utilizing the classical approach we help students to attain knowledge, train them how to think logically, and ultimately give them the rhetorical skills to be strong witnesses for Christ in the world.

We encourage creativity
We believe creativity is a precious gift given to each and every one of us from our Lord. We promote creativity in instruction by infusing class time with hands-on, collaborative activities that help students explore new knowledge in practical ways. We promote creativity by offering art, drama, music, and dance classes. We encourage creative expression by organizing musical and theatrical events where all our students have a chance to participate.

We build community
We believe in a synergistic approach to education by partnering with families who desire to fulfill the biblical calling to be involved in their child's education, but who also want a school with well trained teachers to provide the educational backstop. It is part of our mission to help equip families to better teach and reach their own children for Christ. We believe that God intends some of the most important lessons in life to be learned in the context of the home under the guidance of the parents (Deuteronomy 6:7-9), and also in the church. A strong education is important, but we also want to support and encourage discipleship. For this reason ACCA organizes regular “training and sharing” sessions for parents. These sessions are offered weekly to help train and encourage parents for the work they are going to complete at home with their own children. It also provides a platform for families to share ideas and methods that have worked for them.

All in all, we seek to balance the best a Christian school can offer with the best of homeschooling.
