Academics

Academic Philosophy

We believe in the rich history of education and agriculture. We are farmers. The Faithful Farm School will help children develop into God loving stewards of the land, and to soar academically. We believe in the innocence of childhood and want to encourage this. We want students to choose their passion, whatever that may be, and encourage them to be confident leaders. The Portals curriculum follows the Read, Discuss, Do philosophy. Every day we will spend time doing activities to cement the topics learned about that day. A lot of time is also spent outdoors while caring for our animals and gardens.

BIBLICALLY-GROUNDED WISDOM

At The Faithful Farm School, students are nurtured in mind, body, and spirit through a Christ-centered education that connects God’s Word to all of life. Using the Portals Curriculum, we guide students through a rich and integrated journey of learning where every subject points back to the truth of Scripture. Surrounded by the beauty of creation and the rhythms of farm life, students experience hands-on learning that deepens their understanding of God’s design. With biblical wisdom as their compass, they learn to think critically, live purposefully, and stand firmly in their faith.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE ROOTED IN NATURE-BASED EDUCATION

At The Faithful Farm School, our Christ-centered, nature-rich approach blends classical education with hands-on learning. Students grow in wisdom and character as they engage deeply with great books, fostering a love for reading that lasts a lifetime. Rooted in truth, they develop critical thinking, clear communication, and thoughtful reasoning through the study of literature, logic, and discussion. With a strong foundation in the sciences, math, and humanities, our students are equipped to thrive academically and live purposefully—ready to serve their communities with knowledge, grace, and conviction.

SPIRITUALLY RESILIENT CHARACTER AND COMMUNITY IMPACT

At The Faithful Farm School, students grow in wisdom and virtue as they are rooted in the truth of Scripture and nourished through intentional discipleship. Guided by the Portals curriculum, our students explore the wonder of God’s creation, cultivate spiritual resilience, and practice the fruits of the Spirit in daily life. In our Christ-centered, farm-based environment, students learn to lead through service, steward their gifts with humility, and love their neighbors with compassion. Our graduates are equipped to be faithful ambassadors of Christ—courageous, joyful, and ready to bring light into every corner of God’s world.
