This program is intended to support and reinforce both the domestic church and the local parish community. Once the geographic information of students is known, the school will begin to seek out partner parishes willing to serve as hubs for occasional gatherings of local students. These are spaces where a small group of students, parents, and educators can gather for Mass, confession, academic electives, tutoring, labs, or extracurricular activities once or twice a month depending on need or desire. Two all school Masses will be offered each year. One in the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City, and one in the Diocese of Tulsa, giving students, faculty, and families an opportunity to come together and pray as a part of the larger church. All other Masses will be served through a family’s local parish or parishes willing to serve as hub locations. Online prayer services, scripture study through Lectio Devina, Visio Divina, the rosary, theology classes, study of the saints, virtue development, and service to family and community will round out the catechetical formation and sacramental life of our students.
St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School will be a K-12 Catholic academic program steeped in the richness of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition with an integrated curriculum where goodness, truth, and beauty are infused throughout all subjects. Curriculum resources will be chosen in all subjects to enlighten and strengthen the intellectual capacity of children to seek Truth through faith and reason. To this end, great care is taken to ensure proper alignment in the curriculum. Catholic Liberal Education is rooted in the study of the seven liberal arts broken into two overarching categories, The Trivium: The Art of Language; and Quadrivium: The Art of Number. Joy in learning comes from an alignment of the humanities, the art of language, that allows for discovery of truth through the integrated study of history, literature, and theology. This combined with the art of number, the study of God’s well-ordered universe in math and sciences: earth, physical, biology, chemistry, astronomy, technology, music, and architecture are all wrapped in the beauty of the fine arts which span both categories. Internet technology via Chromebooks as well as hands on materials will be the tool in which we bring these timeless treasures to our young people. Our program, while uniquely Catholic, will meet or exceed the secular requirements of the state charter agreement as well as graduation requirements for high school students. St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School will also be able to meet the special needs of most students, within the capacity of a virtual model, allowing a Catholic education for exceptional learners.
