Prep schools are synonymous with success. 35% of prep schoolers are admitted to Ivy League universities, while only 0.01% (1 in 10,000) public schoolers make the cut. Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden are prep schoolers. Half of the Supreme Court Justices are prep schoolers. The greatest tech icon billionaires, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, and Elon Musk, are prep schoolers. Though prep schoolers only make up ½ a percent of the population, 6 out of 9 Supreme Court Justices are prep schoolers. Founder and Headmaster, Britton LaTulippe, is a prep schooler, and he created Blue Manor Academy to be an elite prep school for Christian homeschoolers.

Every school claims to have a great language arts program, but we say “the proof is in the pudding.”

While the core curriculum provides students with all they need academically, it is through live mentorships, classes, and clubs that the biggest breakthroughs often occur. Classes give students the chance to ask questions; mentorships provide the opportunity to receive personalized instruction from a master; clubs allow students to meet, collaborate, and socialize with other students from all over the world.

The monitorial (student-led) system of education is the hallmark of elite prep schools. While it is best for masters to teach higher-level subjects, it is equality important to give students opportunities for leadership and agency. At BMA, all students can start a Kids-Teach-Kids channel, helping them gain mastery through teaching. They also have opportunities to lead clubs and even some entry-level classes, and have their work published in the Academy! In fact, this very homepage was coded by a Blue Manor student, and some of our photography students contributed the video and images. With only a little adult supervision, our Chess Club is entirely run by our three-time Idaho State Chess Champion. Our learning games are developed by our coding club and art club, and writers in our mentorship program have published some of the best short stories and essays in our library. Instead of merely striving for “good grades,” our students work to leave a legacy that inspires and marvels future generations.

While more and more online schools are turning to AI chatbots, machine learning, and virtual realities, Blue Manor Academy is committed to maintaining a literature-based curriculum. Books have the human touch, and it gives them a depth, richness, and beauty that soulless bots can’t replicate. However, our literature-based curriculum has many modern features, such as scrolling text (which is easier to follow) and audio so that students can rest their eyes. Or, when a subject is especially important or complex, they may listen and read along at the same time, a practice that drastically improves comprehension and retention.

Blue Manor Academy acknowledges the supremacy of Christ and His dominion over all things, including this school. While other Christian programs are classical with a sprinkle of Christianity, BMA is Christian with a sprinkle of classical. Our students read the Bible cover to cover before graduation, explore the writings of the early Church fathers, memorize scripture, study Church history, and learn Christian ethics and virtues. While our school is non-denominational and we leave the teaching of specific denominational doctrines to pastors, priests, and parents, we believe in the Trinity, and are strong advocates of traditional Christian values.

When schools subvert truth to promote political agendas, the best students become the least educated. Sadly, political actors have taken over many American schools, and they are writing and rewriting the nation's textbooks. However, at Blue Manor Academy, we know that God is watching our words, and so we are committed to being as truthful as humanly possible, whether it is politically correct or not.

Customizable

An elite education is always custom-tailored. Children have unique dreams, so they must have a unique learning path. This is the hardest thing for people to understand. Parents always wonder why Blue Manor Academy doesn’t have a preplanned learning schedule or a day-to-day lesson outline. But how could we? It might take one child five days to master a skill or concept that another child learns in five minutes. Every child has unique strengths and weaknesses; each child has distinct ambitions and abilities. A great curriculum molds itself to the child, not the child to the curriculum.

At Blue Manor Academy, we begin with a pre-ordered curriculum divided into grade levels, but it serves only as a starting point. Parents have the power to add, subtract, move, or replace all books and lessons. Is there too much math for your child? Remove some. Not enough? Put some more in. Has your daughter already read a particular book? Swap it out for another. Would your son prefer to read Jack London’s Call of the Wild instead of Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility? Let him – they are both great books. Would you prefer your children not read books that feature “magic,” such as The Wizard of Oz? Remove them from the Library, and your children will never see them. Don’t want your children playing learning games? Lock them. We trust that parents know best for their children.
