Getting Ready For September...

We have 15 families, with close to 30 children registered so far! We have 5 tutors getting trained to lead parents in our weekly meetings. Everything is moving ahead for our start, hopefully on Tues. September 14th.

There's much to look forward to in another month and a half. From the 160 events and people on the history time-line, to the 24 history sentences, 43 Presidents, 100 geography locations, 24 Science facts, Latin conjugations, English grammar, and multiplication tables--that's over 500 pieces of information, not to mention the 6 great artists, music theory, 3 classical composers, science experiments & oral presentations we will be doing! WOW! Get your track shoes on because we are going to hit the pavement running!

ON YOUR MARK...GET SET...

WEEK 24 - this is our last week!

Well, it's hard to believe we are almost done. There is much to praise God for: He has provided awesome families to be a part of this CC community! We have diligent tutors, who weekly encourage the parents to keep on going! A body of believers has generously given the use of their building every Tuesday! We have new families who are signing up for the fall! WOW! Our God is good!

You are invited, if you are in the area,

to join us for a night of celebration!

When: Thursday, April 1st, at 7:00 PM
Where: Faith Pres. Church, 280 Red Mountain Dr. G.P.

We will listen to testimonies of God's faithfulness, watch the children show us some of the grammar they have learned, and eat goodies.

Week 22

Demonstrations of ways to remember the CC grammar are also given. Essentially, if you pair this meeting with a visit to an Open House you get a vivid picture of who we are. Come join us and see for yourself!

Time: 6:30 PM

Free 3 day Parent Practicums- "Thinking Beyond a Book"

Homeschooling is a journey that takes vision and careful planning. Check your bearings and plan the best route for your family at Classical Conversations' free 3-day Parent Practicums.


Morning speakers will show you practical tools for bringing breadth
and depth to your family's learning using grammar, dialect and rhetoric skills.

Discover how the classical model takes education beyond a textbook for relational and transformational learning.


Economically-priced Care & Camps for Kids!
While you are learning, your students will be too! Whether they are being cared for in our nursery, playing and chanting in our play camps, memorizing and drawing God's world in our geo-drawing camp, or learning more about language, writing, science, or communicating in one of our older academic camps, your students are sure to enjoy the group learning environment. Dates and locations will be posted on the CC web site calendar as the details are finalized.
