Hello all,
Did you hear us on the radio this morning?! The founders of the Academy, along with Mr. Philip Kilgore of Hillsdale College, were on the Bill Mick show this morning. If you missed it, you can check out the Podcast here!

We had an excellent turnout for our second Pineapple Cove Classical Academy information night last night. Thank you for all who came out to support us.

Let's talk curriculum! The main curriculum source for classical schools is the Core Knowledge Curriculum. This is not to be confused with the Common Core, which is a relatively new standards set proposed by the states. Core Knowledge and the Core Knowledge Foundation have been around since 1986- almost 30 years!- and is a content-rich and literacy-based curriculum. Do you want to see what our students will be learning? Check out some sample lessons from the Core Knowledge Sequence here. Click on your grade level of interest to view the sequence.
