Rhetoric Stage

Rhetoric Stage – Ninth through Twelfth Grade

The Geneva School aims is to prepare our graduates to be successful when entering the final stage of the trivium, the rhetoric stage. Rhetoric is an art; the art of persuasive speech and writing. During the rhetoric stage students organize the facts and thinking of the grammar and logic stages in a witty, articulate and persuasive manner. This culminating stage ultimately prepares the student to engage the world as a problem solver and culture shaper.
