What If ...
What if your child's education and discipleship reflected a godly home environment where your child was known, loved, and challenged? What if the school's mission aligned with your family's values? We encourage all prospective parents to discover the possibilities for your child's education at Rockbridge Academy.
How Do We Educate Hearts and Minds?
At Rockbridge Academy, we take a deliberate approach to helping our students see Christ ruling over every thought, every subject, every historical moment, this moment we are living in. This is a responsibility that we don't take lightly and something we cannot do alone.
By God's grace, the support of an all-Christian faculty who prays together each day for one another and for our students helps keep our eyes set on Christ. We acknowledge our dependence on Christ and make an effort to point our students to Him daily.
Classical. Christian. Community.
Rockbridge Academy exists to be a transformative learning community, graduating young men and women as thinking, compassionate, and intentional disciples of Jesus Christ.
Our mission is to partner with parents in a distinctively classical and unwaveringly Christian education for their children, encouraging the pursuit of goodness, truth, and beauty in all of life.
Now is a great time to learn whether Rockbridge Academy is the right choice for your family.
Attend an Open House Event
As you explore educational options for your child, I would like to personally invite you to one of our upcoming Open House events at Rockbridge Academy to show you how we prepare students to lead lives of faith and academic excellence.
We believe that the best way to understand the unique value of a classical Christian education is to experience it firsthand. Our Open House includes a campus tour with visits to classrooms, a meet and greet with current parents and administrators, and various opportunities to hear more about the academic program, arts, athletics, and student life from teachers and students. We will also provide a comprehensive overview of our academic curriculum to help you determine the best path for your family—Rockbridge Academy's time-honored 5-day program and our new homeschool collaborative option, The Paideia School.
