Barney Charter School Initiative
Bradenton Classical Academy is currently in the application process for affiliation with Hillsdale College and hope to have that completed in the near future.
The Barney Charter School Initiative (BCSI) is an outreach program of Hillsdale College devoted to the revitalization of public education through the launch and support of classical K-12 charter schools. ... Since that time, BCSI has assisted in the launch of dozens of schools across the country.
Training for classical educators
Hillsdale College teaches schools how to provide an education that is both classical and American in its orientation; one that is rooted in the liberal arts and sciences, offers a firm grounding in civic virtue, and cultivates moral character.
