School Notes

Tidewater Classical Academy utilizes the Classical Education Model to build the foundational values of truth, faith, and grace in each of our students. From 8:15am-12:45pm everyday, students are at TCA. Although art and music are integrated within our curriculum, our primary focus is on developing the four key tools of learning - reading, writing, math, & language. Visit our website at tidewaterclassical.com to learn more about us.

Using the time-tested classical method, our students master the tools of learning via a distinctly Christianworldview. Utilizing our uniqe model, we blendthestructure of the classroom with the personal attention of homeschooling.
