Principled Academy

Teach your children from a Biblical worldview—without spending years trying to figure out the Principle Approach® on your own.

We Are Biblical Classical Homeschoolers

If you’ve ever thought, “I want to disciple my children through a biblical approach to life and education, but I don’t know how,” you’re in the right place.

You love homeschooling—but lesson planning feels overwhelming.

You want to teach from Scripture, not just add Bible class to your curriculum.

You’ve heard about the Principle Approach®, but finding clear, practical training for your family and homeschool has been difficult.

You’re tired of piecing together resources and wondering if you’re doing enough.

If you’re . . .

  • Unsure where to begin.
  • Overwhelmed by curriculum choices.
  • Teaching subjects separately.
  • Wondering if children are truly learning biblically.

You’ll learn how to . . .

  • Teach every subject with confidence.
  • Understand the Principle Approach® in practical ways.
  • Raise children who think biblically instead of simply memorizing facts.
  • Feel supported by experienced mentors and a like-minded community.

You don’t have to figure out the Principle Approach® for your family and homeschool on your own. Principled Academy equips Christian homeschool parents with practical training, biblical teaching, and a supportive community so you can confidently educate your children with purpose.

The Principle Approach®

With a teachable spirit and desire to learn, you can become scholarly. No college degree in education needed.

God’s principles are intelligent and practical.
They change individuals and nations.

Philosophy and methodology matter.

The Puritan Founders of Harvard said: “Let every student be plainly instructed, and earnestly pressed…to lay Christ at the bottom as the only Foundation of all sound knowledge and learning.” That is the historical form of education in America—a Biblical framework for each sphere of life and learning.


D.L. Moody said: “Obtain for use a good Bible, a concordance, and a topical text-book.” We add to that the use of Webster’s 1828 Dictionary to further aid our studies on topics in our academic subjects and issues of life.
