We are honored to announce that The Story of Civilization, The Foundations of Science, and The Foundations of Wisdom series have been officially recognized as recommended curriculum courses by the Cardinal Newman Society.
This distinction affirms that these programs meet the rigorous policy and curriculum standards of the Cardinal Newman Society and reflects TAN's steadfast commitment to supporting Catholic educators and families in forming students who are intellectually formed, faithful, and prepared to engage the world with wisdom and virtue.
“The Foundations of Wisdom series is at once philosophically rigorous and easily accessible for high school–aged students and beyond. Drawing its source material from some of the greatest thinkers in the classical Western tradition—such as Plato, Aristotle, and St. Thomas Aquinas—teachers can expect a reliable guide for building a robust philosophy curriculum.”
Daniel Lee Philosophy Teacher, St. Augustine Scholars Program, Charlotte Catholic High School
“Fr. Walshe's series on wisdom is fascinating, fostering wonder in students. It is accessible, whereas much philosophy is dry and overly technical. It provides what catechesis so often misses: a vision of the world and a way of thinking about human nature that supports the Catholic faith.”
Lucas Heintschel Headmaster, Coeur du Christ Academy
