Classical. Transformational. Purposeful.
John Adams Academy - Douglas County is a tuition-free, public K-12 classical charter school, opening grades K-8 in fall 2026. We develop servant leaders who engage with their world meaningfully, empathetically, and with a desire to serve their communities. Our scholars learn from the best mentors and receive not only an excellent education rooted in tradition, but also the kind of character that helps them to be the best version of themselves. We seek to inspire our scholars to become life-long learners who have the ability to identify, understand, seek, and defend what is good, what is true, and what is beautiful.
Human connection. Authentic engagement. Reasoning rooted in knowledge and kindness. Our teachers see their scholars and care about their safety and well-being. We do this through intentional use of technology and constant attention to their environment and needs. We foster the kind of classroom that encourages scholars to bring their own ideas to the table with confidence. We work together. We learn together. We flourish together.
Our classes for the fall are filling up quickly. Because the demand for classical education is high, the first year offers the best opportunity to join the John Adams Academy community. Apply today to secure your seat!
