Memoria Press · Grades PreK-12
Families committed to rigorous classical Christian education with Latin, memorization, and daily lesson plans; customizable packages reduce overwhelm
$300-500/year
Overview
Memoria Press is the classical Christian standard. Open-and-go daily lesson plans, Latin from second grade, and crown-jewel literature and recitation work. Two pacing tracks (regular and accelerated) and customizable package options keep the workload tractable across grade levels. Used by hundreds of classical schools, the curriculum produces students with enormous retention, particularly in Latin, vocabulary, and memorized literature. The composition program is the weakest link; experienced families swap it for IEW. French is the only modern language offered.

The honest read
The organization and rigor are unmatched for classical. The composition program is the weakest link. Experienced families swap it for IEW. Latin and literature are the crown jewels. Grammar recitation rules are 'cumbersome' compared to the elegant Latin recitations. Customization options prevent overwhelm.
