What our CLC Parents are saying:

"Clear Lake Classical is such a blessing to our family. Our daughter has throughly enjoyed her years at CLC. She has been challenged both academically and personally and as a result has grown tremendously in both areas. The joy that radiates from her upon learning it is a school day is a credit to her teachers and the way they integrate learning and fun. I could go on and on about all the reasons we chose CLC for our child. Thank you Clear Lake Classical! We look forward to next year!
