PINEAPPLE COVE CLASSICAL ACADEMY INC.
PALM BAY, FLORIDA

Welcome to Pineapple Cove Classical Academy Pineapple Cove Academy, a highly successful early learning facility located in the Bayside Lakes Division of Palm Bay, has inspired the application for Pineapple Cove Classical Academy. Demand from parents for a K-8 opportunity that matches the rigorous and successful VPK program at the early learning facility has been the impetus for Pineapple Cove Classical Academy’s inception. Pineapple Cove Academy scores in the top 10% on the Kindergarten Readiness Screener (FLKRS) year over year, an exemplary performance that is an example of the expectations we carry to the K-8 arena. Pineapple Cove Academy’s early learning facility sets the standard for what a successful and academically-oriented preschool should be. We carry this mission of student success forward to Pineapple Cove Classical Academy. The mission of Pineapple Cove Classical Academy is to develop graduates in mind and character through a classical, content-rich curriculum that emphasizes the principles of virtuous living, traditional learning, and civic responsibility. We are building intelligent, virtuous American citizens. John Moran had the vision and wisdom that shaped Pineapple Cove Classical Academy. Through his perseverance and dedication to his parents and community, Pineapple Cove Classical Academy was born. John has an uncanny ability in making dreams become realities and the journey that became Pineapple Cove Classical Academy is no different. The result of this perseverance, we believe, will result in a school unlike any other in Brevard County. The mission of the Barney Charter School Initiative is to promote the founding of classical charter schools and excellence in their teaching and operations, to the end that public-school students may be educated in the liberal arts and sciences and receive instruction in the principles of moral character and civic virtue.

Pineapple Cove Classical Academy excels not only in academics, but also in building strong character. Classical education is a liberal arts education. “Liberal”, in this case, means “free”. Classical education prepares young men and women to live in freedom and independence, and not in a servile existence. The primary art for which we are preparing is the art of living well. Job skills are a by-product and not the end of classical education. The end is a virtuous young adult who lives not with historical or cultural amnesia, but rather with a sense of who she is in the context of human history. Classically trained students will be well qualified for future studies in law, medicine, business, engineering, technology, theology or any other professional or vocational pursuit. We aim for our students to know the story of our country, and to read and write with facility. We are clear that a young graduate who is able to use her knowledge of the past to make good decisions in the present, and to plan wisely for the future will be in high demand and prepared to flourish. The core of the charter school model is the belief that public schools should be held accountable for student learning. In exchange for this accountability, school leaders should be given freedom to do whatever it takes to help students achieve and should share what works with the broader public school system so that all students benefit. Pineapple Cove Classical Academy is a tuition-free public school. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, national or ethnic origin, or exceptionality in the admission of students, in accordance with federal and state anti-discrimination law. The School is open to any eligible students in the county, including exceptional education students. . In this case one Latin word helps yield ten English words- a pretty good investment. Latin also helps students understand grammar. As they learn Latin grammar, they are also learning or reinforcing their knowledge of English grammar. Our own way of labeling and analyzing English grammar evolved from the study of Latin grammar. The grammar of the Latin language is logical, straightforward, and highly regular, making it an ideal language to learn grammar that can be applied to many other languages, including of course, English. It has been shown repeatedly that the study of Latin quickens and enables one’s mastery of English. SAT and GRE (Graduate Record Exam) scores rise. We welcome visitors to view our school. We provide tours during our application season from January through May on most Fridays at 9 a.m. Pineapple Cove Classical Academy, Palm Bay
