FOUNDER'S STATEMENT

In the relatively short existence of humanity, only here in America has a government been founded on inalienable individual liberties secured in our Constitution. As we survey the historical events since our Nation’s birth, we find great achievements mingled with serious failings. We are, after all, human with imperfections and weaknesses. In spite of this, our founding fathers birthed the greatest nation that has ever existed.  We have the power to learn from our mistakes, strengthen our national fiber and restore American’s Heritage.   We owe it to our forefathers and our future generations to do so.

In the immortal words of Ronald Reagan, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.” Handing on to our children Freedom, Liberty and Love of country starts with education.  

Excalibur Classical Academy is dedicated to the revival of educational excellence by drawing upon Western Civilization traditions of virtue, knowledge and wisdom, passed down through the millennia. We call upon our mentors, parents and scholars to commit to achieving an institution dedicated to classical scholarly advancement, sound critical thinking and moral values based on Judeo/Christian beliefs.

Excalibur is the legendary sword of King Arthur, symbolizing rightful sovereignty and divine authority.  Its name derives from the Welsh Caledfwlch, meaning "hard cleft" or "sharp breach," and evolved through Latin Caliburnus and Old French variants before becoming "Excalibur" in later Arthurian literature.

We select Excalibur as our symbol as it represents a fierce determination to live a virtuous life in the defense of goodness and what is right.
