Oxrose Ranks #4 for CLT10 in the Nation

Oxrose Academy Receives National Ranking Award for the CLT10 January 21, 2025

Oxrose Academy has been named one of the top five schools in the Classic Learning Test’s (CLT) 2025 CLT10 School Rankings. This award recognizes Oxrose Academy’s student body for collectively receiving one of the highest average scores on the CLT10 out of schools across the United States during the 2023-2024 academic year.

The CLT10 is a college preparatory exam and PSAT® alternative designed for 9th and 10th graders and offered by the Classic Learning Test (CLT). Evaluating reading, grammar, writing, and mathematics, the CLT10 provides a comprehensive measure of achievement and aptitude and engages students with thoughtful reading material drawn from classic literature and historical texts.

Since its inception in 2016, Classic Learning Test has offered assessments steeped in more intellectually rich and rigorous content than other standardized tests. Out of the hundreds of schools that take the CLT10 every year, Oxrose Academy’s recognition in Classic Learning Test’s 2025 School Rankings is a remarkable achievement.

Congratulations to our 2024 Oxrose Graduates

The Oxrose Academy 2024 class of graduates is the largest class Oxrose has graduated so far since its 2011 beginnings. A few graduates in the class were also able to boast the honor of having taking classes from Oxrose Academy throughout their entire middle school and high school years.

An impromptu graduation ceremony was arranged by parents of Oxrose while everyone was in attendance at the annual Oxrose Rendezvous. Students and parents worked several hours to sew sashes and to arrange the delivery of graduation props to the middle-of-nowhere Kansas.

This event brought in several teachers, including even Mr. Keatley, who traveled from the Czech Republic. It was honor to wish our graduates well into their next steps.

Gaudio sicut Gladiis sempter in altum!
