Alexandria Spry
Welcome to Ashley River Classical Academy! We are excited to embark on this educational journey with you as we bring outstanding education to South Carolina. At ARCA, our mission is clear: to equip scholars with the tools they need to learn, think critically, and eloquently express their thoughts. We are committed to nurturing the minds and hearts of our young scholars through a classical education in the liberal arts and sciences, enriched with a focus on moral character and civic virtue.
An American Classical Education
Our curriculum places a strong emphasis on language, content-rich subjects, a solid foundation of core knowledge, and an in-depth exploration of the historical, literary, and scientific legacies of both the United States and Western civilization. It has been thoughtfully chosen to cater to the diverse needs of all our students.
