VISION
MISSION
Montrose Classical Academy will fulfill its vision by implementing the Core Knowledge Sequence within a classical education framework that systematically builds knowledge while honoring diverse learning styles. Through explicit instruction, differentiated support, and responsive teaching practices, we ensure every student demonstrates competency in essential content and develops critical thinking skills. Our program combines rigorous academics with character development, empowering all students to develop into knowledgeable, confident, and engaged citizens ready for future success.
MCA envisions a school community where the time-tested principles of classical education combine with research-based understanding of varied learner needs, creating an environment where every student discovers their potential and develops the knowledge and character to succeed and become productive and self-reliant individuals.
"Achieving New Heights in Public Education!"
We are the MCA EXPLORERS!
We will open with grades K-5, adding one grade per year thereafter until we fully reach grades K-8.
The “Explorers” constantly seek excellence, care for others, model exceptional values and are grounded in the principles of liberty!
Cardinal Virtues
01.
GRATITUDE
Gratitude is not only the greatest of the virtues, but the parent of all the others ~ Cicero
02.
WISDOM (Prudence)
Wisdom is concerned with the mind. It is the virtue that allows us to judge correctly what is right and what is wrong.
03.
JUSTICE
Justice is concerned with the will. Justice is connected to the idea of legal and natural rights, and our will to protect those rights.
04.
COURAGE
(Fortitude)
Wisdom and Justice are the virtues through which we decide what needs to be done; Courage gives us the strength to do it.
05.
SELF CONTROL
(Temperance)
Self-Control keeps us from excess and leads us to virtuous living. While Courage is concerned with the restraint of fear so we can do what is right, Self-Control is the restraint of our desires or passions so that we can live well.
