Clarksburg Classical Academy
Where Students Learn to Think—and Live—with Purpose.
Clarksburg Classical Academy is a school where character is forged and thinkers are built. A tuition-free K–6 classical academy where young learners grow in wisdom, virtue, and conviction, led by passionate educators and guided by the vision of our Provost, Dr. William J. Bennett.
Clarksburg Classical Academy is part of the Jefferson Classical Academy family of schools.
We Teach What Lasts Because Clarksburg Deserves It.
With an intense focus on the Grammar Stage of the Trivium, we use time-tested instructional methods to develop students into articulate thinkers, confident speakers, and responsible citizens.
Here, your child doesn’t just learn facts. Each grows in moral clarity, discipline, and self-respect.
“We’re not teaching fads. We’re teaching foundations.”
— Dr. William J. Bennett
Small by Design. Strong in Community.
Our classrooms are alive with care, structure, and civic pride.
- Smaller class sizes ensure that every child is seen and supported.
- Morning assemblies and recitations build shared habits of respect and excellence.
- Local civic traditions and hands-on learning connect the school with Clarksburg’s heritage.
- And families? They’re never on the sidelines. They’re part of the mission.
This is a school where education and community go hand in hand!
