==History==
In November 1995 the National Christian Foundation for Education and The Arts Trust (NCF) was established with the goal of operating a non-denominational, academically-rigorous high school in Northern Virginia. Fundamental to NCF's goal was the belief that all labor in vain unless God directs our efforts – ''nisi Dominus frustra''. In September 1996, NCF opened Ad Fontes Academy (AFA). AFA recognizes that “each child is created in the image and likeness of God, the Creator, as a unique human being having a purpose for which he or she is created and is known by his deeds, by whether what he does is pure and right” and that “the knowledge and pursuit of truth, understanding and wisdom has the intended outcome of enabling the individual to fulfill the purpose for which he or she is created.”
When Ad Fontes Academy opened in September 1996, it started with 8 students in Grades 9-10. AFA graduated its first class of five seniors in June 1999. In 2000, AFA added Grades 7 and 8 to the high school program. In 2003, Kindergarten was added and Grades 1 to 6 the following year for a full K-12 program.〔(History of Ad Fontes Academy )〕 AFA founders drew heavily on the ideas in the book ''Recovering the Lost Tools of Learning'' when they established the school.
