media aviation expert Jay Ratliff. Folks out there listening audience
have children and grandchildren that are of K through twelve age.
You know you may be disappointed in your school offerings.
You aren't going to be disappointed in the Cincinnati Classical Academy.
(00:22):
Joining me today back from the fifty five KRC Morning Show,
Doctor Jed Hardings. He Westside native. I went to Xavier
High School, went to the University of Notre Dame, got
a PhD in neuroscience from the University of Pittsburgh, and
he served as a medical research officer in the US
Army and left the services rank of major. Thank you
for your service to our country. And throughout his business
(00:43):
life highly successful, and then he realized, well we have
a massive decline in American education. He is responsible for
founding the Cincinnati Classical Academy back in twenty nineteen. Welcome
back to the Morning Show, Doctor Hardings. It is a
real pleasure to have you on today.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Thanks so much, Brian.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
What is one start of school. This is so you know, folks,
tonight seven pm it's an Empower You America seminar, a
tour of the sincint Classical Academy. So you're not logging
in from home and you're not showing up at the
Empower Youth Studios. You're actually going to show up at
the Sin Sant Classical Academy. We'll get the details on
that in a minute, but it's a great concept bringing
the Hillsdale College classical education on a college level to
(01:22):
K through twelve education. So conceptually it's a bulletproof idea
given the needs we have out here in the education world.
But the idea of going out and starting a school,
that'd be like peace of God for me. Doctor Harding's
where does one start and how are you able to
successfully pull this off?
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Well, I mean it was the labor of love, Brian,
But you know, I was blessed with having a great education,
but there were you know, as you grow up and
you'll learn about the world, I realized how many omissions
there were of sort of essential knowledge from that education.
And when I discovered that Hilldale curriculum and how rich
(02:03):
it is in its content, how deep it dives, the
number of requirements. You know, the course work there. It's
not optional, it's not elective to study you know, great literature,
you have to study it. So you just get filled
with this passion to offer this gift of pure gold
(02:23):
to our next generation and help form human beings who
are going to benefit society for decades to come with
their learning. So it just becomes such a great passion
that we had to do it, and it took about
three years. We started in twenty nineteen on the founding
effort and we didn't open the doors of the school
(02:46):
until three years later. So it's just a matter of
rolling up your sleeves and asking the right questions and
then doing the work to find the answers to how
you can make this work.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
And of course along the way, if from the whole,
if you build it, they will come. You build a
better mouse trap, people are going to buy it. You
build a better school structure to the school system, you
provide classical education, people are going to knock down the
doors wanting to get in. You always have You've always
had like a waiting list, and you started out with
a limited numbers. It was like K through four or six.
I can't remember the initials, the initial of the student
(03:20):
body K through six.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yeah, K through six, and we were we had all
seats filled that first year and the growing weight list
that blossomed in nearly five hundred students by the next year.
And what was impressive to me was was how we
had ninety nine percent student retention from that very first
year to the to the next year. And that's been
(03:44):
sustained through these years. So we still have a long
wait list, but have now grown to K through nine
with nearly a thousand students, and that first ninth grade class,
that first high school class, will we'll go on to
ten and eleven and twelfth grade until we have a
first graduates in twenty twenty nine, which we're looking forward to.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
I can't only imagine how excited you are about that now.
You obviously, with the growth in size and the growth
of student body, you had to expand the space. And
that's why you're showing folks tonight on this empower you
summon are the new Summit Park campus. Let my listeners
know all about that.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Yeah, so that's been one of the toughest lists in
the founding was fine in the space and we spend
years searching and finally closed on a property last fall,
and it spent the last year. Last time we talked,
we were knee deep in construction out there in Blue
ash for the middle and upper school campus. But I'm
(04:44):
happy to report that we're on the other side of
that now. We finished construction. We opened the school there
on time. We had a beautiful grand opening celebration with
over three thousand people coming through the doors the first
the week before school started. But for anyone who didn't
didn't make it that day, tonight, we're having an event,
(05:06):
a free tour of the school through our new campus.
It's free, just have to register and empower you America
dot org and anyone's welcome to come out and learn
about Cincinnati Academy Classical Academy, and see what we've built,
learn about our educational philosophy, and uh see what it's
sort of back to the future, you know, old school
(05:27):
education in a very modern building. So we welcome everyone
to come out.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I just I'm kind of curious about how you go
about hiring the teachers, the educators. I suspect that given
you're doing classical education, there are a bunch of teachers
out there who embrace that concept and would want nothing
more than to work in an environment like the since
Sant Classical Academy. Have you ever had any problem of
hiring and retaining teachers?
Speaker 2 (05:54):
We have not. We've had we've had exceptional teacher retention
and we've been able to fill all those because there's
a phrase for it that our headmaster uses. He calls
them refugee teachers. It turns out there are lots of
teachers who've been wanting to be able to do this
kind of thing for their whole careers, and they are
(06:15):
refugees from the educational system in general, and they find
it home with us, and they're very glad to be
empowered to do their jobs and lead and teach in
the classroom.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
And I suppose concept like woke ideology and DEI mandates
and Dick Todds, that's not part of since A Classical Academy.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
It is not.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
That's why it's a refuse for all those disappointed teachers.
There's freedom escape the since A Classical Academy and enjoy
what you're doing being a teacher. I've always commented on
one of the greatest things that I enjoyed about, particularly
law school, but it did exist in the K through
twelve education with a certain degree is the Socratic method,
the engage in the question and answers back and forth
(07:01):
with whoever's teaching a class. Do you have that kind
of concept at the Sincant Classical Academy?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Absolutely, And you know it starts gradually in the sort
of the middle school, but it really starts to blossom
as you get into the high school levels. Yeah, it's
it's throughout the school. Is the main method of instruction outstanding.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Now, can you explain to me and my listeners, of course,
this concept of citadel life, the house system as you
refer to as sin Sant Classical Academy. What's that all about?
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Yeah, exactly. Well, it serves multiple purposes, but it kind
of organizes the culture within the student body. I mean
we sort of have a breakdown in community in society today, right, yes,
and people lost, right, especially in the digital world. Well,
this is kind of one answer to that. Although it's
(07:56):
a system that is quite ancient, going back hundreds of
years the schools, great schools have used it. But it
organizes the students into four houses where and it's and
it goes across grade levels down to uh grade grade
seven on up. And uh, they they work together, they
(08:18):
mentor each other. Uh. The older students model good behavior
and virtue for the younger students, and the younger students,
you know, learn from from the older students. So uh.
And it's they compete with each other and cooperate on
various various areas of service of academic achievement, athletic achievement,
(08:42):
and various other kind of cultural things that they do
at the at the school.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Civics and morality and character, these are all part of
the curriculum at since classical academy. Have those concepts just
disappeared in public education, sir?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
It's it's the ai of our school is to cultivate
moral character and civic virtue. I mean, those are the
aims of the educational enterprise. It's to form the whole person.
It's to form the habits of excellence concerning mind, body,
(09:21):
and soul.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
I just wish that this concept was embraced by all
public education because some of the hardest to reach children
out there are the ones that really are in desperate
need of civic virtue and moral character. They're clearly not
getting it at home. And I can only imagine the
weight that any given educator might have with a classroom
full of thirty five kids who lack moral character and
(09:42):
civic virtue. How do you transform that group? I mean,
I think that's at the root of the problem. If
you have a broken home or of the nuclear families disappeared,
you need resources. The kid needs to have proper guidance,
not going to get it from a public education. I
wish your school was available literally across this entire country
of ours, doctor.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Yeah, and and and Brian, the the the public teachers unions.
They came after us and attacked us because we write
about morality on our on our website and our materials
and our were teaching in our classrooms. They object to
the very nature of that. The only way that they
know how to care for in their minds, because it's
(10:21):
such a foreign concept to them, is to come out
and call as Christian nationalists, or to accuse us of
being a religious school masquerading, you know, you know, take
taking dollars from the public treasury. It's nonsense. Uh More.
Moral character and morality and what is the good and
what is beautiful has been around, UH had lots of
(10:45):
cultures and for a long time before Christianity.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Yes, uh, Socrates played you go prior to the Greek civilizations.
Of course you have u you know the religious times
and thousands and thousands of years ago, morality and character
were always discussed. But as I'm looking at the Cincinnati
Classical Academy page, which is for my listeners who are interested,
since you with y Classical dot org, I don't see
anything in here about Christianity, sir.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
No. And we teach all the major religions. We want
all of our students to be culturally literate and informed
about the world cultures and the world religions.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Because they exist as a factual matter. You got to
go live in a world with multiple religions. It's good
to get a concept and understand them within and underneath
the umbrella of moral character and civic virtue. So glad
about this. So the tour is tonight at seven. It
begins at seven pm. But they do need a registered
empower you America dot org. Correct, doctor, that's correct?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Now?
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Is this going to be ye one tour beginning at
seven and going through the space or what if people
show up late? Is that possible? I guess I want
to get the lowdown on the logistics, Sir, you.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Should probably aim to show up at seven o'clock, maybe
get there a little early, register before six forty five,
and if we plan on one tour, but we'll make adjustments.
We'll have contingency plans in case, in case there's some
stragglers or more people. But yeah, we'll go through all
the major spaces and from symposium room to how we
(12:21):
furnish the school to the reviewing the virtue posters that
are on the wall. So we'll talk about the Citadel
Light House system, and see the library and see the
new construction. We're building thirty thousand square feet of a
gymnasium and a music wing and lots of other stuff
as well, So we'll get to see all of it
(12:43):
and see how it implements physically our educational philosophy.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
All right, there's somebody right now out there going, wait
a second, my kids have to go there, or my
grandchildren need to register. When is registration? How does that
go about? I mean, when is it open? If what grades?
There's got to be some sort of limitations on that, doctor.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Yeah, enrollment usually begins at the end of the year
December perhaps, and we always accept all applications from kindergarten
through up through tenth grade this coming year. So go
to Sincy Classical dot org and it takes about five
minutes to apply and if there's more, if there's more applications,
(13:28):
then we have seats available. Then it goes to a
lottery system. There's no aptitude tests, there's no financial means
tests because we're tuition free. So if you're lucky enough
to win the lottery, you get a seat.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
And this your academy draws people from all over the region.
I mean, there are some people who go through some
significant lengths and difficult challenges getting their children to school
every day, but they fight that battle and they win
that battle and they make it there every day because
of the draw of the education. I mean, you're literally
with people from all over the Tri state area, are you?
Speaker 2 (14:05):
We are? And incredibly those numbers continue to grow. I
got corrected recently that we're not drawing from sixty zip codes,
but we're drawing from seventy one zip codes now and
over forty different home school districts. I didn't know there's
forty school districts in Greater Cincinnati, but the answer is
(14:27):
there aren't because this goes This includes up to six
different counties and I can't even name all the six.
That's amazing, but that's yeah. People are feel pretty fortunate
when they get in, and they're willing to make sacrifices
and prioritize it in their lives. I mean, and it
(14:47):
makes sense. It's their children's formation. It's who you're entrusting
these beautiful souls that you've created, who you're entrusting them to.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
I've said in a million times, doctor, the second greatest
gift if my parents ever gave me, after the gift
of life, was the gift of education. They insisted on it,
and I'm thankful for it and I've benefited from it.
And boy, what a great opportunity to do just that
by getting your children in the Sinsant Classical Academy. It
starts tonight. Do the tour. It's seven pm. Go to
empower you America dot org. Make sure you register and
(15:17):
make sure you they're on time. Doctor Hardings, thank you
for the work you've been doing over these years. And
I can't I thank you enough, and I certainly know
the families of the children you educate are truly appreciative
of it. And we'll look forward to having you back

tests because we're tuition free. So if you're lucky enough
to win the lottery, you get a seat.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
And this your academy draws people from all over the region.
I mean, there are some people who go through some
significant lengths and difficult challenges getting their children to school
every day, but they fight that battle and they win
that battle and they make it there every day because
of the draw of the education. I mean, you're literally
with people from all over the Tri state area, are you?
Speaker 2 (14:05):
We are? And incredibly those numbers continue to grow. I
got corrected recently that we're not drawing from sixty zip codes,
but we're drawing from seventy one zip codes now and
over forty different home school districts. I didn't know there's
forty school districts in Greater Cincinnati, but the answer is
(14:27):
there aren't because this goes This includes up to six
different counties and I can't even name all the six.
That's amazing, but that's yeah. People are feel pretty fortunate
when they get in, and they're willing to make sacrifices
and prioritize it in their lives. I mean, and it
(14:47):
makes sense. It's their children's formation. It's who you're entrusting
these beautiful souls that you've created, who you're entrusting them to.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
I've said in a million times, doctor, the second greatest
gift if my parents ever gave me, after the gift
of life, was the gift of education. They insisted on it,
and I'm thankful for it and I've benefited from it.
And boy, what a great opportunity to do just that
by getting your children in the Sinsant Classical Academy. It
starts tonight. Do the tour. It's seven pm. Go to
empower you America dot org. Make sure you register and
(15:17):
make sure you they're on time. Doctor Hardings, thank you
for the work you've been doing over these years. And
I can't I thank you enough, and I certainly know
the families of the children you educate are truly appreciative
of it. And we'll look forward to having you back
on the show again real soon, doctor, Thanks so much,
my pleasure, A say twenty one right now. Fifty five
cares to the otalxtation
