Over the past few years, SCL has articulated a bold strategic plan to advance the cause of classical Christian education. Through an intensive and prayerful planning process we have developed a focused path to strengthen classical Christian schools, catalyze the growth of new schools, develop leaders at all levels, provide needed research and thought leadership for the movement, and build a sustainable organization to serve hundreds of schools.Â
The advancement of this vision requires strategic collaboration to meet the variety of school needs in our network. SCL is selecting a few schools from across the United States who can strategically partner with us to:
- Exemplify the SCL Thriving School StandardsÂ
- Work collaboratively to advance the classical Christian education movement Â
- Provide training, support, and resources to a larger number of schools and educators
- Work closely with key leaders to establish mutual benefits to our respective organizations
- Expand the access, reach, impact, and influence of classical Christian education regionallyÂ
- Provide support and resources to SCL’s operations at a critical time in the development our organization
Strategic school partnerships allow both organizations to enrich their work while serving the movement. We are excited to introduce the first of our 2024-25 Thriving School Partners.
