Welcome To
The Agora School
From the Founder and Chairlady of the School Board
The word Agora, rooted in ancient Greece, once described a public gathering place where ideas were exchanged, minds were sharpened, and society was shaped. In that same spirit, The Agora School was founded to be a place where education transcends the classroom—where children are not only taught what to think, but more importantly, how to think.
Meaning Behind the Name
Agora (Greek: ἀγορά) was the central public space in ancient Greek city-states.
It was not just a marketplace, but a hub for ideas, dialogue, democracy, and intellectual exchange.
Think of it as the birth place of Socratic questioning, philosophical debates, political reform, and communal learning.
The Agora School Tagline Idea!
“Where Ideas Meet and Minds Expand.”
Philosophical Vision
The Agora School can embody: Socratic Method in teaching— asking powerful questions instead of just giving answers.
- Collaborative Learning Spaces – classrooms that feel like open forums.
- Emphasis on Dialogue, Civic Responsibility, Critical Thinking, and Creative Problem Solving.
Design + Visual Identity Concepts
- Symbol: Greek columns, olive wreaths, or a speaking figure in silhouette.
- Font: Classic serif fonts (like Trajan Proor Cinzel) to evoke Greco – Roman roots.
Colors: Deep blue, gold, marble white, and bronze for a classic scholarly feel.
School Anthem (Original Composition)
A short, power ful anthem that can be sung at assemblies or special events. Written in poetic, timeless style:
Verse1:
In the light of truth we gather,
By the flame of reason bright,
Seeking wisdom, voice, and virtue,
Guided by eternal light.
Chorus:
We are voices in the Agora,
Hearts and minds made strong and free,
With our words we shape the future,
Truth and honor, our decree.
Verse2:
Hand in hand, from many nations,
One in purpose, one in creed,
Called to think, to speak with courage,
So wing thought, and truth as seed.
