THE ACADEMY'S TRIVIUM STRUCTURE

In the context of classical Catholic education, the Trivium refers to the three foundational arts of grammar, logic (or dialectic), and rhetoric, which are seen as essential for developing critical thinking and communication skills.

Kindergarten through fifth grade studies highlight the Grammar skills of the Trivium, and middle school studies centralize logic skills of the Trivium. Students will engage in the Rhetoric skills of the Trivium upon matriculation to Chesterton Academy.
