The model of classical education works because it teaches children in the way they naturally develop and when combined with a Christian worldview will give children the foundation they need to be ready for whatever calling God has for their lives. The strength of classical education is in the Trivium: the three stages: grammar, logic and rhetoric. These stages naturally coincide with how God made children to learn. This method follows the natural progression of thinking and learning for every child in each stage of their development, ensuring they are well-prepared for their next steps in life, whatever they may be.
The 2021 Veritas Teacher Development Conference will be held in Lancaster, PA at the Eden Resort. Lancaster is just over an hour’s drive from Philadelphia. While Lancaster is known for the Amish, we'd recommend that you check out Central Market in Downtown Lancaster while you're here. You'll find plenty of treats to snack on there. Be sure to try a doughnut from Achenbach's. They're incredible!
