Classical Curriculum

​

At Highlands Latin School DFW, we believe in cultivating the mind through a truly classical and traditional education. Latin, Greek, mathematics, and music are universal languages that form a crucial part of the HLS curriculum. These disciplines challenge students to reach their full intellectual potential by strengthening the mind, fostering precision, and deepening understanding.

Singing sacred music builds community and awakens the soul to God, while studying the classics through the lens of Christian faith develops wisdom, virtue, and a love of truth.

 

To provide this rich classical experience, we use the Memoria Press Classical Core Curriculum across all grade levels. This curriculum offers a strong foundation in Classical Composition, Latin, English Grammar, Classical Studies, Christian Studies, and more, giving students a cohesive and rigorous academic journey.
