The Academy of King Leo

 

 

As the new city begins to rise, so does a new place of learning. The building would be large and prosperous, housing many classrooms and activities to delve into. The sandstone structure would give off an open look, large windows peering in, letting the students marvel at the city’s beauty from the comfort of their classroom. 

 

Constanza- Alexia, the youthful Headmistress of the academy sits in her office, glancing at all the letters she had scribed to announce the opening of her beloved academy. The letters would fill her desk, leaving almost no room for writing. She would look over her last draft, reading it aloud to herself to check for errors.

The Academy of King Leo

 

 

Welcome students and parents and teachers, and thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this letter. If you haven’t already heard, the city of Alego has constructed an academy, where we will be taking children in to learn about their subjects of interest and subjects of knowledge. We will be taking enrollments for the next few months, so do not feel the need to rush at all. Below, I have listed the current subjects that we will offer. I ask that you pick two elective courses, and no more than two general courses. We are also in need of staff. Teachers are an important part of this institution, and we wouldn’t have one without them.

 

Courses

 

General Classes-

 

• Etiquette  

In this course, you will learn how to properly conduct yourself, whether it be at the table, or even on a walk through the city. It is important for each child to learn this, so they do not struggle with learning it later in life. In this course they will also learn how to address people and how to speak in a fashion that is respectful to themselves and to their peers.

 

• Savinian History 

In this course, your child will learn all things that have to do with our history. From battles to coronations, each student will learn the ups and downs we have faced throughout our history. Hopefully, with this knowledge, our city can become a better place.

 

• Theology

This course delves into the beliefs of the Canonist Church. Analysis of the Holy Scrolls, discussing pivotal events, and reasoning the doctrines and beliefs that have emerged serve as the core content of the class. Students will also explore the history of the church, the saints, and how the beliefs of Canonism have transformed society and beliefs over the centuries.

 

• Geography

In this course, you will learn about Arcas and the many nations and cultures that live among it. From Elven nations to Dwarf nations to Human nations, your child will learn them all, and learn about what those dots on the map are really all about.

Elective Classes-

 

• Music

In this elective, your child will choose an instrument from our assortment in the academy, and they will learn to play it with the help of a tutor. Along with this task, they will also be taught how to read music, as well as have the opportunity to join the school’s choir. At the end of each term, a recital will be held where each student can show off their acquired skill!

 

• Art

In this elective, each student will have the opportunity to create to their heart’s content. Whether it be painting or sculpting, they will push their own abilities and create new ones along the way, all while creating masterpieces to decorate your home with!

 

• Swordplay

In this elective, training will be done to ensure that each child can properly use and wield a sword against an opponent. They will learn not only the physical aspects of sword fighting, but also be taught what weapons they are using and what they each are used for. 

 

• Literary Studies

Books are our future. Reading them and analyzing them is a step towards that future. In this elective, each student will read the assigned book, and together, they will come to an understanding about what the text means and why it was written.

 

• Theater Studies

This elective is for aspiring performers, but anyone can take it if they want to. In this course, students will analyze plays and learn how to get into character to portray scenes from the text. The class will also reenact plays and perhaps even put on a show for the community!

 

• Tailory

The clothes on our backs are imperative, it is quite helpful how to make and take care of them. In this elective, you will learn how to stitch and repair worn clothing, as well as start anew and make your own stylish outfit!
