About Us
Porter Hill Academy of Arts and Sciences offers a traditional education grounded in the truth of Scripture and shaped by the enduring wisdom of the liberal arts. Guided by a biblical worldview, our curriculum unites the study of literature, history, mathematics, science, and languages in a way that forms both intellect and character. Students are encouraged to love what is good, seek what is true, and delight in what is beautiful.
Following the pattern of the Trivium through the stages of grammar, logic, and rhetoric, our courses develop mastery of language, strength in reasoning, and clarity in expression. We aim to cultivate minds that are disciplined and hearts that are virtuous.
Our fully online program provides families with structured lessons, prerecorded instruction, and thoughtfully designed digital resources. Students may learn at a pace that fits the rhythm of the home. At Porter Hill Academy of Arts and Sciences we partner in the high calling of education, one that nourishes wisdom, nurtures faith, and prepares students to serve with purpose

An Ordered Approach to Learning
At Porter Hill Academy of Arts and Sciences, we believe that true education cultivates both the heart and the mind. Our online courses reflect this conviction, providing a structured yet flexible path for families committed to classical Christian formation at home.
Why Classical Education?
-
It accords with the God-given nature of the child.
The classical model cultivates the mind in its proper order, beginning with knowledge, progressing to understanding, and culminating in wisdom and expression.
-
It orders all learning toward truth.
By grounding every discipline in the truth of Scripture, classical education reveals the unity of knowledge under the lordship of Christ.
-
It esteems the family as the first school of virtue.
In honoring the parent’s role as primary educator, this model strengthens the bond between home and school in the formation of character.
-
It prepares the soul for a life of meaning and service.
Classical education shapes students to think deeply, speak with grace, and live faithfully for the glory of God and the good of others.
“That their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, which is Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.”
— Colossians 2:2–3 (ESV)
