A Classical Education for Kids:
Washington Mid Atlantic Chapter Introduces the Classical Planning
and Design Language to the Washington Latin School

New Heights

In April, your ICAA Washington Mid Atlantic Chapter advanced the understanding and appreciation for the classical language in a three-day New Heights education program for seventh graders at public charter school, Washington Latin in Northeast DC.

Our eager students attended classroom sessions with ICAA member presenters, including John Mahshie, Tommy Vince, John Henry Sisk, Michelle Russell, Jennifer Horn, Michael Patrick, Christian Zapatka, Robert Bell, Nic Charbonneau, and Amy Mehmetoglu. Architectural tours around Washington were part of this New Heights curriculum with visits to The George Washington University Museum, The National Gallery of Art, Georgetown and Oak Hill Cemetery. Long-time chapter members John Mahshie and Jay Fazio organized this education event and hosted the classroom sessions at the Compass Realty offices.
