Life After WHA: Meet Our Alumni, Part 2

In this blog post, we shared reflections from Wilson Hill graduates on the impact of a classical education rooted in Scripture. It is evident from their experiences that our students leave Wilson Hill with a love of what is beautiful, good, and true. The disciplines they learn as they study God’s word, read classical texts, and learn about our world through the lens of biblical truth equip them to become men and women who live

And the mark of perfection is a moving target, always
