Founding
Logos School was established in 1981 by parents and educators including Doug Wilson, Larry Lucas and Shirley Quist. Tom Garfield served as the first superintendent. Wilson helped develop its classical Christian program inspired partly by Dorothy Sayers' educational writing.
Education model
Wilson's Recovering the Lost Tools of Learning (1991) helped popularize the model. Requests to establish similar schools contributed to the creation of Association of Classical Christian Schools. The K–12 school and New Saint Andrews College are separate institutions.
