School Overview

Corinth Classical Academy (Upper School) is a tuition-free, open-enrollment public charter school located in Hickory Creek, Texas. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, the school is part of the ResponsiveEd network and focuses on a rigorous, content-rich liberal arts curriculum. Its educational philosophy is rooted in the classical tradition, emphasizing the development of critical thinking, moral character, and a deep appreciation for Western heritage, history, and literature.

The school’s academic approach prioritizes the "trivium"—a methodology consisting of grammar, logic, and rhetoric—designed to cultivate well-rounded students who are capable of articulate expression and sound reasoning. Beyond core academics, Corinth Classical fosters a disciplined and structured environment that encourages students to pursue excellence in both their studies and their personal conduct. By combining traditional instruction with modern standards, the school aims to prepare its graduates not only for college readiness but for responsible, informed citizenship.
