Our Classical Mission

Deeply rooted in the Great Books and traditional liberal arts, Bluestem Academy is a K-12 homeschool co-op that cultivates wonder, logic, and rhetoric. We believe education is the cultivation of the soul on what is true, good, and beautiful. Our classical curriculum guides students through the stages of the Trivium, fostering a community of families dedicated to intellectual excellence and virtuous character within a supportive, traditional environment.
