Our Programs
 

The Institute exists to help Catholic educators committed to offering their students the best Catholic education possible.  Currently, we offer the following programs.  Contact us for further information.

  1. Return to Principles:  In-Service Workshops at Catholic SchoolsThis two-day in-service program gives faculty at a host school or schools an overview of Catholic Liberal  Education in the curriculum and school environment, along with some curricular consultation.
          Presentations help schools understand the purpose of a Catholic school, how classical education fits with this purpose, how to introduce the trivium into the classroom, and how to run discussion classes.

  2. Truth & Joy in the Catholic School – Academic Retreat for Teachers This Retreat gives Catholic educators an in-depth experience of an authentic Catholic learning environment. Each day is devoted to a different aspect of the curriculum the Trivium, Quadrivium, Natural Sciences, History and Theology. Discussions inside and outside the classroom reinvigorate the joy of learning, while offering helpful suggestions to participants for bringing their experience back to their schools.
