Thales Academy: Growth & Excellence

Share this story

Thales Academy at Flowers Plantation campus has grown in many ways since opening in 2022. We now have a bustling student body of over 600 Pre-K through 9th grade students this year and expect to grow more each year as we continue to add high school grades annually through 12th grade.

We are proud to have achieved a national Top 20 Ranking in the Classic Learning Test’s CLT8 exam—an 8th grade standardized test that assesses language arts and mathematics. Our students continue to achieve mastery in many subjects and skills across all grades. Kindergartners are reading fluently out loud, our third graders can write letters in cursive, our seventh graders debate articulately and respectfully in their Socratic seminars, and our ninth graders know basic auto repair skills alongside their ability to read and analyze The Odyssey. We also regularly recognize students who show strong character, which is a cornerstone at Thales Academy.

This year, we added a junior high/high school athletics program (Go Vikings!), started a National Junior Honor Society chapter, and collaborated with our broader community in various efforts, such as The American Legion for our Pre-K–5 Veterans Day performance and the Johnston County Department of Social Services’ Angel Tree project. We are so grateful for our Flowers Plantation and Johnston County communities.

Our school works to instill wisdom and virtue through beauty, truth, and goodness in the classical tradition. We look forward to continuing to provide a high-quality education with low tuition to the Flowers Plantation area.
