Our educational philosophy recognizes that children need time for both work and play. In the morning, students are in multi-grade classrooms working alone, or in small groups on individualized assignments. At noon, students have a full hour for lunch and outside play. In the afternoon, students of all ages choose from a variety of activities including science experiments, drama, cooking, big group outdoor games, hand-crafts, art, study hall and more. The New Classical Academy offers children a safe, happy and balanced environment, and our school is truly a joyful place to watch our students learn and grow.

The New Classical Academy is located just seven miles north of Asheville in the beautiful small town of Weaverville. Weaverville features a main street of locally owned shops and eateries, a large park with a lake and playground, and friendly neighborhood streets where children ride their bikes and people walk their dogs. If you are considering a move to Asheville, we suggest you look at Weaverville. The drive to downtown Asheville is easy, so living in Weaverville gives you small town life near a fantastic city.

The New Classical Academy is a non-profit corporation in the state of North Carolina. The school is run by a volunteer Board of Directors.
