Orange County Classical Academy will offer a content-rich education that challenges and motivates each student to discover, strive for, and achieve her/his full personal potential. We believe that all students deserve a challenging and comprehensive curriculum directed toward achieving world-class standards. We further believe that family involvement and commitment are essential to each student achieving his/her maximum potential.

The Academy will feature a strong curriculum, outstanding teaching, ongoing assessment of progress and development of student potential, and will require a commitment to high standards and to a full partnership between families, learners and the Charter School. Working in partnership, teachers and parents inspire each student to identify his/her special excellence as well as become a lifelong learner.
