OVERVIEW
IN-PERSON PROGRAM
Each of our teachers has at least 10 years of real-world experience in the classroom.
For our K – 6 students, we have found that in-person teaching is most effective. That’s why we have created a program just for them. With caring teachers leading our younger students through our custom champions-based curriculum, we see amazing growth in skills, knowledge, and maturity. Ultimately, it’s about giving our youngest students the proper head start to a successful life.
SGA’S LOWER SCHOOL LEARNING APPROACH IS BASED AROUND A CLASSICAL EDUCATIONAL MODEL
PREPARATION FOR WHAT’S NEXT
The Texas TEKS are our baseline, but we surpass that standard for our students every day.
Our SGA educational professionals are always focused on what’s ahead for their students. The foundation that our unique K – 6 program provides prepares students for Grade 7 and beyond, giving them the ability to ask questions and explore their world with open eyes.
The classical model gives students a broad base in a range of skills to take them forward. It is a content-rich curriculum which includes the use of classical literature and focuses on a concentrated study of the core academic disciplines: history, literature, mathematics, and science. A strong emphasis on language, literacy, writing, and mastery of the English language results. Reading of the great books in literature and primary source documents in history

OVERVIEW
HYBRID EDUCATIONAL MODEL
Teaching specialists in reading, writing, and math underscore and build upon an accredited online curriculum.
SGA is a full 12 month academic and training immersion program designed to give students a unique path to success. We’ve seen firsthand how declining student expectations in a range of traditional educational models have resulted in a youth falling behind. Parents are often forced seek supplementary educational support at a high cost. At SGA we believe in a higher standard. That standard means a more focused 12-month program resulting in a better prepared student body and success for the future.
