The last step in becoming a brand new company is getting a brand new name.

We are excited to announce our new name--Lucerna Academy!
"Lucerna," which is a Latin term for an ancient oil lamp, is a nod to our roots as Lampstand Learning Center and to our focus on providing homeschool students with a classical education rooted in the time-tested ideals of wisdom and virtue. While our name has changed, we are still the same passionate educators who have served you for the last 11 school years, and we look forward to serving you for many more! 

Enrollment for 2021-2022 opens soon!
​February 10th for returning families
​February 24th for new families
​

That's not all that's new this year . . . 

We're also planning exciting new courses for the 2021-2022 school year. Here's a sampling:
Exciting New Tapestry Courses
In addition to our classical history, literature, and writing courses based on the award-winning Tapestry of Grace homeschool curriculum, we now offer a full range of rhetoric-level Tapestry courses for all year plans. These budget-friendly discussion courses meet bi-weekly throughout the school year, making them more affordable for your family.
  • Rhetoric Worldview
  • Rhetoric Fine Arts
  • Rhetoric Philosophy
  • Rhetoric Government
Science for All Stages
We are excited to offer a full range of science courses:
  • Lower Grammar Jr. Coding
  • Upper Grammar Chemistry & Physics
  • Upper Grammar Fun with Coding
  • Dialectic General Science
  • Dialectic Exploring Coding
  • Rhetoric Biology
  • Rhetoric Chemistry
We plan to expand our offerings each school year, so your student can take the science courses they need all the way through graduation.
Vocabulary From Classical Roots
We now offer Vocabulary From Classical Roots courses starting at the upper grammar level all the way through high school. These full-year courses meet bi-weekly to equip students to determine unknown word meanings using Greek and Latin roots. This knowledge increases student vocabulary and reading comprehension, provides students with a useful, transferable technique for making sense of unfamiliar vocabulary across content areas, and prepares students for standardized tests including the SAT and ACT. ​
