At Augustine Christian Academy the teacher is the key to a successful classroom. Curricula is merely the tool the teacher uses to achieve our objectives. Augustine Christian Academy uses a wide variety of curricula, chosen for their adaptability in the classical model. Because the foundation of any successful study is the ability to read, ACA uses the ABeka curriculum in the primary grades, supplementing with hands-on materials where appropriate.
In the older grades, the curricula includes selections from Bob Jones University Press, Saxon Math, Shurley Grammar, and a wide range of books for reading, composition, and poetry memorization. Latin instruction begins in kindergarden, and continues into Latina Christiana followed by Latin for Americans.
Students from Augustine Christian's School of Rhetoric complete all of the Oklahoma State requirements for graduation and much more. The average graduate will complete 28 units of credit in a challenging college-preparatory program. Courses include four years each of math, science, English, history, and literature. Courses in rhetoric, economics, Greek, and Hebrew are also offered.
To this academic program, students may round out their experience with journalism, choir, drama, student leadership, and other extra-curricular pursuits. Music and art are a part of the standard curriculum for every student. The goal is a diverse understanding and appreciation for the wonder of our God as expressed in His creation.
