Our Story
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
Prov 3:5-6
In summer of 2022, our Board Chair woke up one night with the thought that she needed to start a school. She had recently retired from Dexter Public Schools - she had contact with many parents and others in the community who were expressing a desire for a local alternative to public schools with excellent academics and a Christian foundation. She started talking to people and soon a team assembled and Washtenaw Classical Fund was established as a 501(c)(3) to raise money to build a new school.
Almost a year and a half later we have developed a plan for Wing Classical Academy, a private Classical Christian school.
We are working diligently to put all of the pieces in place to open in Fall of 2024.
