History

Aristoi Classical Academy in Katy, Texas is a second-generation public charter school in its 23rd year of operations as of 2019. The school was originally West Houston Charter School, but by 2006 it had low enrolment.[3] The original model focused on catering to each student's preferred learning style or styles, with different content for auditory, kinesthetic, and visual learners, respectively.[4]

2016 STAAR test scores were good for students attending the school.[5]Шаблон:Deadlink

The school expanded into a new K-12 campus on Morton Road in 2016.[6]

Moore as the new Headmaster after Matthew Watson serving in the position for five years to develop the high school.[7] On October 18, 2019, Dr. Moore “tendered his resignation” as Headmaster. Kathryn Locheed took his place as the interim Head of Upper School.

Curriculum

Aristoi Classical Academy uses a classical curriculum.

The substance of the curriculum traces its roots to ancient Greece and Rome, the civilizations that Aristoi sees as the first to systematically explore the meaning of human existence. The school sees the literature, poetry, philosophy, and political experience of those ancient cultures serve as the foundation of Western civilization and form the basis of classical education. The classical education Aristoi employs aims to recognize “the experiences of historical peoples and societies as a rich source of wisdom for the present."[10]Шаблон:Deadlink
