History
The school was started in 1971 by a small group of parents who wanted a school that taught children with respect for their individuality. Paideia was founded upon the idea that children have different interests and learning styles, and that they progress at different rates. The school offers a challenging academic curriculum along with performing and fine arts and 10 sports at the junior high and high school level. Paideia is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Southern Association of Independent Schools. Paul Bianchi has been the headmaster since Paideia began.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“To a surprising extent the war-lords in shining armour, the apostles of the martial virtues, tend not to die fighting when the time comes. History is full of ignominious getaways by the great and famous.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
