**There is also a Sophia Institute Spirit of Truth homeschool option or for others who prefer it for Grades 1 to 8.Spirit of Truth Leads students into a meaningful encounter with Scripture and helps them to develop a sense of wonder through sacred art and vivid stories of the saints. With interdisciplinary activities that show why faith matters.
