Civics 101-The Constitution of the United States of America

The Preamble is more than words on a page—it’s the foundation of our democracy. In this course, students in grades 4–8 will dig into its meaning, line by line, to uncover the ideas that still shape our nation today. Together we’ll explore, question, and discuss with a critical eye, building not just knowledge but the ability to analyze and connect ideas as a community. The experience culminates in a project-based learning showcase, where students put their understanding into action—demonstrating not just what they’ve learned, but how they can carry these ideals forward. This course goes beyond civics lessons to help students become confident, independent learners, who are also effective communicators, analytical thinkers, and compassionate, transformational leaders committed to thoughtful decision-making and integrity

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺

  • Every family begins with a parent-and-student interview. This ensures we can truly meet the needs of the students we serve and create a learning environment where every child can thrive.

  • Our program is built on Christian values like love, kindness, patience, and integrity. We help students see how these principles can guide everyday choices, encourage them to lead with compassion, and give them a strong foundation to grow into thoughtful, caring leaders.

  • The curriculum is designed by a strategic, highly regarded educator with a record of helping students close gaps and excel. Here, kids learn to think, read, write, and speak critically—setting them on a path toward strong success in college and career readiness.

  • This program is intentionally designed to support students from marginalized communities, giving them focused attention and opportunities they might not otherwise receive. That said, any child who joins is fully welcomed, valued, and supported. Every student in the program has space to grow academically, socially, and personally, and we work to meet each child where they are to help them thrive.

  • Fees vary depending on program options and enrollment.

  • At this time, we are focusing on building and strengthening our civics program. We plan to expand our offerings, including science, in the future.

  • Formative years are too valuable to leave to chance. This class gives kids a foundation on which to build for future courses and for life—preparing them to grow into confident, purpose-driven individuals.

  • Students leave with more than knowledge. They gain insight to critical thinking, confident communication, and a clear understanding of governmental structures to prepare them for what comes next. Reading and writing skills are strengthened, and their voices and identities are fortified

  • We don’t replace what schools do—we strengthen it. By weaving reading, writing, and analysis into civics lessons, students reinforce what they’re already being taught while gaining the deeper understanding and personal attention that schools often can’t provide.

  • Students should have basic grade-level reading skills—meaning they can recognize and read words at their grade level, even if they need support with comprehension. We set this expectation so every child can fully engage with the lessons and benefit from the program’s instruction.

  • Children who thrive in this program often show curiosity about how the world works. They may enjoy asking thoughtful questions, think critically, or want to express their ideas and stand up for what they believe is right. These traits help students engage fully with discussions, projects, and problem-solving activities that build civic understanding and leadership skills.

  • This is our flagship civics course, but not our last. Future courses will expand into deeper civic studies and advanced academic skill-building, continuing the growth students begin here.
