Mission

The Ad Fontes mission is to glorify God by assisting Christian parents in equipping their children to be servant leaders through a superior classical education based on eternal biblical truth.

“As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in thanksgiving. Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.” Colossians 2:6-8

At Ad Fontes, we are very intentional about fulfilling this mission in the classroom. The Scripture passage speaks to our core commitments to spiritual and intellectual development.

At Ad Fontes, we endeavor to equip Christian students who have a deeply rooted, growing, established, joyful walk with Christ that touches every aspect of their lives. We also seek to train students to develop skills of understanding, thoughtful discernment and clear communication to live with love, grace and wisdom.

We encourage every family to define their vision and goals for their children and seek a school that aligns with their core values.

We have established a specific description of our ideal graduate so you can honestly determine if Ad Fontes is the right school for your family. This vision will drive all our efforts.

We endeavor to prepare students who:

  • Love God with all of their hearts, souls, minds and strength
  • Reason wisely, listen carefully, think precisely and articulate persuasively
  • Lovingly engage and influence culture with a Christ-centered worldview
  • Have a dedication and love for learning and scholarship
  • Possess the tools to live and think with truth, wisdom and independence

Additionally, we have asked alumni and their parents about their experience at Ad Fontes and these responses have been consistently shared. Our students graduated with:

  • Exceptional writing skills
  • Tremendous breadth of knowledge
  • The ability to develop thoughtful opinions and defend ideas
  • The skills to study
  • A love for Christian community – the “espirit de corps” of students and faculty
  • The challenge and achievement of completing the Senior Thesis
  • The capability to think biblically

We encourage you to visit us to experience the difference of Ad Fontes.
