About Us/Consulting

At Classical School Solutions, we provide curriculum and resources for teachers in public, charter, private, non traditional schools and homeschool parents. We believe in an education that emphasizes the importance of the liberal arts and the development of critical thinking skills, as well as the formation of ethical and moral character. Our goal is to provide educators with the best possible materials for their students, by providing them with the tools, resources and support they need.
