His Image, His Earth: A Charlotte Mason Co-Op
We strive to cultivate a rich, close-knit community where Christian homeschool families can share fellowship, encourage each other as we train our children according to God’s Word, and carry one another’s burdens.
We follow the Charlotte Mason philosophy and method, where we view education as “an atmosphere, a discipline, a life” as we study the riches during our weekly meetings.
Cost: $40 for the first student, $25 for each additional student (oldest student must be 6 years or older).
We do have a cap of 12 families, so we may be full, but please reach out, we'd love to hear from you!

Charlotte Mason NorCal
CM NorCal was formerly called CM West. Given the growth of the CM Community on the West Coast, we decided it was time for a new name and a smaller regional focus. Our commitment to encouraging growth and fostering community continues and we look forward to meeting you at an event in the near future.
We host single-day events for educators to meet new people and explore the riches of a Mason education. We offer encouragement for local groups and connect with others to help form or grow your group and learn from other communities. We plan to offer educational retreats and overnight retreats to help educators delve more deeply into Mason’s principles and practices.
Please join our mailing list so you will be notified about our next event!

Charlotte Mason Monterey Bay
Charlotte Mason Monterey Bay is a community of home-educating families dedicated to implementing Charlotte Mason’s philosophy in their homes. All levels of understanding are encouraged and welcome!
In alignment with Charlotte Mason’s Philosophy, this group upholds a biblical worldview, affirming that the Word of God is true and serves as the foundation of our beliefs.
Our purpose is to encourage and support families who are committed to learning and applying Charlotte Mason’s philosophy. While we warmly welcome those who are curious and exploring, our focus is on cultivating a community that is growing deep roots in Mason’s living ideas. We serve families in the Monterey Bay and Central Coast region, including Santa Cruz, Monterey, and San Benito Counties.
We encourage involvement in two ways *ENGAGED* or *ROOTED*:
🌻ENGAGED: is intentionally designed as a starting place—a space for families to observe, learn, and begin discerning whether Charlotte Mason’s philosophy is the right fit for their home. It’s not a static level, but a seasonal stage of growth.
Purpose: To offer an open door for the curious and new—to learn, and begin practicing Mason’s principles in small practical ways. We desire to cultivate a community where growth is intentional.
Families newer to Mason’s philosophy often begin at the Engaged level, taking time to learn and gently apply her ideas. Others may step directly into the Rooted level, already convinced of the life-giving nature of this method. Your journey will be unique to your family. Whatever the path, our hope is for each individual member of the family to experience personal and relational growth.
ENGAGED Offerings
* Study Group
* Nature Group
* Occasional Seasonal Outings / Family Gatherings
*Study Group (Parents Only)
Our study group is the heart of our community. Each month, we come together to thoughtfully study Charlotte Mason’s volumes, and this shared learning is what anchors everything we do. Because of that, consistent participation and commitment to the study group is a prerequisite for involvement in the broader offerings of our community.
*Monthly | Second Monday of each month at 7PM
*Nature Outings - Nature study, nature walks and outdoor exploration.
- Fridays at 10:30AM, every other week
🌻ROOTED: is for families who are actively pursuing and applying Charlotte Mason’s philosophy in their homes, or those whom are ready to. This level reflects a shared commitment to grow in understanding, build meaningful community, and walk in a common rhythm of living education.
Purpose: To provide a steady, supportive community for families practicing Mason’s method - where shared habits, conversations and experiences nurture both the heart and the home.
ROOTED Offerings
* Study Group
* Nature Group
* Scouting
* Book Club
* Field Trips
* Enrichments
* Mother Culture
* Community Outings
* Family Gatherings
✨Community Standards for all levels of engagement ✨
We understand that finding a group that truly fits your family’s needs can be challenging—there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. That’s why we offer the flexibility to connect in two ways. Community cannot grow without intentional connection. So before making a decision…
We ask that you:
* Prayerfully consider if this is where the Lord is leading your family in this season.
* Commit to CMMB as one of your primary homeschool groups
* Study Group participation
* Participate in at least 2 offerings to build community (rooted community)
We look forward to connecting with you!

Inspiration & Delight — a conference in Seymour, TN, July 19th 2025.
Saturday, July 19, 2025 in Seymour, TN
We are excited to announce the first year of Inspiration and Delight, a conference for Charlotte Mason educators, featuring Donna-Jean Breckenridge as our keynote speaker on the topics of atmosphere, discipline, and life. Charlotte Mason said we are limited to using these three tools in the education of our children. Understanding these fundamental ideas is essential to following her philosophy and method, but it can be difficult to fully grasp these concepts. Breakout sessions with Lani Siciliano (language arts and narration), Jeannette Tulis (nature study), and RaeAnna Goss (music) are also scheduled. We hope you will be able to join us for this day of encouragement – a day that will refresh your understanding of Charlotte Mason’s principles and renew your delight in this way of educating and living.
