In this episode of An Examined Education, we hear from alumna Anna O’Neill, Class of 2025, now a freshman at Colorado State University, as she reflects on her 13 years at The Cambridge School. Anna shares how the house system and three years of student leadership shaped her growth, strengthened lasting friendships, and cultivated a deep sense of community. She highlights two enduring gifts of her education: learning to engage in thoughtful, charitable dialogue and developing a confident, well-grounded understanding of the Christian faith through years of biblical study, logic, rhetoric, and apologetics. Through a candid story about an unexpected conversation while upgrading her phone, Anna describes how her Cambridge formation prepared her to articulate and defend her faith with clarity, composure, and grace. Her experience illustrates how a classical Christian education equips students not only for college, but for meaningful, everyday conversations about truth. This episode is a reflection on formation, friendship, and the lasting impact of an education ordered toward wisdom and virtue. Think well. Love rightly. Live wisely.
