Who We Are
- We are a network of Charlotte Mason school leaders who collaborate about how best to institute Charlotte Mason principles in a variety of school settings.
- We gather multiple times a year – once as a whole community for our annual conference and several times as a leadership team – to assist one another, learn from one another, and support one another in our educational journeys.
- We desire to come alongside one another as fellow educators to implement programming that best supports the child as a whole person of God and honors the belief that, "Education is an atmosphere, a discipline, a life, and the science of relations."
