Providing A New Birth of Freedom in American Education
Educating and empowering future generations in an American Classical Leadership Education®
It’s more than just an education — it’s a movement.
The Lyceum exists to bridge the gap in adult education, empowering individuals to guide the next generation in the American Classical Leadership Education® model. Rooted in ancient Greek traditions and inspired by the American Lyceum Movement of the mid-1800s, we envision a modern-day lyceum for adults, cultivating effective educational entrepreneurs, parents, and servant leaders.
