What is Veritas?
Veritas is a one or two day a week homeschool tutorial for Christian families desiring structure and accountability in their homeschooling. All subjects are taught from a biblical worldview and are integrated as much as possible. The integrated humanites program is on Thursdays at Nolensville First Baptist Church from 9-2. Option science classes follow from 2-3:45. If we have sufficient enrollment we will have Spanish, Latin, and math classes on Tuesdays, in addition to our integrated humanities day.

FOCUS on COMPOSITION
Veritas Classical Schools use Institute for Excellence in Writing. How does IEW's writing program work? IEW's unique approach provides the structure that students need to develop confidence in the writing process, while gradually guiding them toward greater independence and creativity. They will learn nine structural models (note taking, writing paragraphs, stories, simple reports, writing from pictures, research reports, creative writing, essays, and critiques) to help them organize any type of composition. Additionally, stylistic techniques (strong verbs, quality adjectives, sentence openers, and more) are taught incrementally to gently move students from the basics into more sophisticated writing. (From the IEW website) UNIQUE EFFECTIVE GREAT for RELUCTANT WRITERS! "I had a lot of fun writing that third paragraph," commented W, sixth grade student.
