Detailed weekly Family Guide — in active development
The full architecture for Grade 7 is canonized in the Master Curriculum. We are publishing the fleshed weekly Family Guides Stage by Stage — Kindergarten (Roots Year 1) is fully detailed now, with the remaining years rolling out in sequence.
What to Expect
How Grade 7 works in KFA.
Grade 7 opens Stage 3 (Wisdom). The student begins to ask the hard questions and is given tools to ask them well. Logic, comparative worldview, and the first formal theology arrive. Service projects continue with deeper reflection. The Troika Score establishes a formation baseline that the family will see grow across Wisdom and Legacy. First cohort year — the family may opt into a regional or virtual cohort. Detailed Wisdom Year 1 Family Guide is in active development.
