  • Transfiguration Orthodox Academy (TOA) is a pan-Orthodox homeschool hybrid program that partners with families to educate the whole child through thephilosophies of Charlotte Mason and the Eastern Classical model. Our students are immersed in a transfigurative rhythm of Orthodox liturgical worship and prayer, loving and Christ-centered interactions, awe-filled hands-on learning experiences, and class time that prioritizes deep conversations and academically robust problem solving.

  • TOA’s new middle school program is rooted in our mission and ethos as a Charlotte Mason, Eastern Classical hybrid school. The program launches with four core classes — Science, Math, Language Arts, and History —taught by experienced and loving instructors. We plan to expand our course offerings as enrollment grows.
