Join us on North Texas Giving Day
Thursday, September 18
Christian
In all we do, we seek to love and serve God and our neighbor. We center ourselves in daily prayer and worship by praying together parts of the Liturgy of the Hours from the Book of Divine Worship and by observing feast days and holy days of the church's liturgical year.
Collaborative
We assist parents with practical help in homeschooling through classroom instruction, accountability, and connection with experienced homeschooling families.
Cultivating
In a culture overwhelmed with screens, technology, and instant gratification, SFA offers outdoor work, folk music, and poetry, grounding heart, mind, and hands in the beauty of God's creation.
Several outdoor classroom spaces enable us to be outside as much as weather permits, and regular outdoor nature excursions enhance our science curriculum.

Our children are whole persons, created to love God and participate in His living story of salvation. SFA's goal is to form our children's appetites for holiness. We do this through an atmosphere of beauty and reverence; through daily disciplines of prayer, study, work, and play; and by feeding our children on living ideas found in the great books of the classical liberal arts tradition.
