Veritas School is a classical, Christ-centered PK–12 school in rural Newberg, accredited by the Association of Classical and Christian Schools. The curriculum follows the Trivium in three divisions. Grammar School (PK–6th) builds memory and language skills across English, Latin, Bible, history, geography, science, math, and literature, with art, music, and PE.

Logic School (7th–8th) adds a dedicated logic course and continues music and studio art. Rhetoric School (9th–12th) trains students to think, write, and speak persuasively through Humane Letters, Math & Sciences, and Arts & Languages, with Harkness-table discussion in many high school classes.

The school treats the arts as essential rather than elective, and its concert choir has won 4 OSAA 2A/1A state titles and toured to Hawaii. Secondary students join one of 4 Houses (Homer, Virgil, Dante, Milton) for PE, House Olympics, service, and spiritual formation, and a daily scholé period builds in time for restful learning.

Field trips range from OMSI and the State Capitol to a 2-day Oregon Trail trip and Washington, D.C. Admission requires a pastoral reference, and each household commits to 40 volunteer hours a year. The school reports about 220 students and 94% of graduates going on to four-year universities.

Tuition: $3,919 - $13,756 (2026-2027 range)

Address: 26288 NE Bell Rd, Newberg OR 97132. Phone: 503-538-1962. Website: veritasschool.net.
