📚✨ Discover Classical Education at Oro Grande Classical Academy! ✨📚
At LHUSD, our classical education model is designed to teach students **HOW to think** rather than **what to think**. Through a rich curriculum that emphasizes history, literature, and language, students develop strong communication skills, confidence, and a lifelong love for learning.
🏛️ Rooted in tradition, our classrooms focus on deep thinking, logical reasoning, and moral virtue. With an emphasis on language-based learning, even our youngest scholars are introduced to Latin!
👩🏫 Our dedicated teachers use time-honored methods to instill knowledge, fostering articulate, well-rounded students who are ready to lead.

🐾✨ Love on a Leash: Spreading Joy and Growth Through Furry Friends! ✨🐾
Since 2012, the Love on a Leash program has been bringing smiles and growth to our students. With 29 dedicated members and dogs of all breeds and sizes, this incredible team visits schools weekly to make a difference in students' lives.
Through these visits, therapy dogs help students improve reading skills, build confidence, and create meaningful connections. Teachers and staff have seen firsthand how these furry companions inspire positive changes in students, both academically and socially.
For the handlers, the joy is mutual! Watching the kids interact with their dogs and seeing their progress is incredibly rewarding. And the dogs? They can't wait to put on their vests and head to school! 🐶💜
We’re so grateful for this amazing program and the love it brings to our students each year. 🐕📚 #LoveOnALeash #TherapyDogs #BuildingConfidence
