Coram Deo Academy is a Christian, Classical, Collaborative school offering a university schedule for PreK–12 students in Dallas, Flower Mound, and Plano. Our mission is to train ethical servant leaders and wise thinkers who will shape culture for the glory of God.

In 1998, three home school families decided to pool their ideas, resources and talents to birth an academically challenging, biblically-based classical school which honored the primary role of parents in the education of their children. They started the first year in 1999 of what was then called Flower Mound Classical Christian School with 57 students in grades 6 through 12.

In 2002, the school changed its name to Coram Deo Academy which means “…in the presence of God.” That same year, the grades were expanded to K-12. Over the next 4 years, Coram Deo Academy opened two additional campuses in the DFW Metroplex
