Gavin-
The terms are used to describe our curriculum as it focuses on the “classics” of Western Literature. We also focus on sequential education, “traditional”. If you read books by E.D. Hirsch they help explain the Core Knowledge Sequence that we use in grades k-8. In high school our foundation course is Humanities which integrates literature and history starting with Ancient Greece and continuing through the Modern Area. We read primary sources in history and the full texts for literature.
Our grading system follows the traditional 90,80, 70….A, B, C format.
Our grades are weighted towards tests and not group work.
We do lots of homework.
We require Latin.
I hope this helps.
John
