We pull our kids out of state schools, but too often they’re still stuck doing the same things:
​
-
Sitting alone at the table
-
Grinding through worksheets
-
Struggling with lifeless textbooks


That's Why We Created The Institute For Classical Dialogue.
We help you achieve what you wanted when you made the brave choice to homeschool.
We worry that our children aren’t practicing crucial social skills. ​
Parents are getting burned out, juggling housework, their jobs, and full-time teaching.
We know something is wrong, and it doesn’t have to be this way.
​
Homeschooling was never meant to repeat the failures of the public system.

Our students love to learn.
They can’t stop reading.
They are college ready.
They are prepared for an exciting career.

At the ICD, we bring back what education was always meant to be:
​
a conversation with the
greatest minds of history.
​​​​

Through Great Books, Socratic seminars, and guided discussion, students learn not just to memorize,
​
they learn to think.
Parents regain peace of mind, knowing their children aren’t stuck in another broken system.
Teens gain the skills colleges and careers demand:
- clear writing
- confident speaking
- the ability to reason through complex problems
Instead of being far less likely to attend college, ICD students are equipped with the transcripts, habits, and intellectual maturity to thrive wherever they go next.
