Seven Oaks Classical School Unveils Monumental Limestone Sign
Seven Oaks Classical School is pleased to announce the unveiling of a monumental limestone sign, a generous donation from board member Donovan Garletts and his wife, Kristina Garletts, owners of Indiana Limestone Fabricators in Spencer, Indiana.
The new sign, prominently positioned at the school’s entrance along State Highway 46,
not only draws the eye, but symbolizes the timelessness of the school’s education and the
permanence of the school’s commitment to this community.
The new limestone sign is a work of art in its own right. Designed with both aesthetics and
permanence in mind, the sign features a large limestone base surrounded by a planter. Rising
above the planter is a limestone slab engraved with the school’s name, crest, and motto (scientia est libertas, “knowledge is liberty”). The design even incorporates the “golden ratio,” a
proportion widely observed in nature and celebrated in art and architecture for the sense of harmony and beauty that it conveys.
“Seven Oaks is profoundly grateful to the Garletts and their team at Indiana Limestone
Fabricators for their generosity,” said Dr. Stephen Shipp, Headmaster of Seven Oaks Classical
School. “This sign not only marks our presence in the community, but also reflects the education itself. The bedrock of our education is the cultivation of wisdom and virtue. We use a curriculum and methods that are time-tested and cutting-edge. Like the sign itself, the education we offer is rooted in tradition, yet represents the finest in modern methods.”
