Putting this post out there in hopes of finding local friends who are interested in supporting one another and cultivating a community of Charlotte Mason Homeschoolers in the Clover area. I am thinking we could start with a few playdates someplace in nature. 🌿

Sacred Heart Co-op
Growing closer to the Heart of Jesus by exploring Truth, Beauty, and Goodness.
Our year is broken into four terms.
For Fall and Spring Terms we meet at parks for nature study, and include a poet, folk songs, and prayer along with outdoor exploration and play.
During the Winter Terms we meet inside; we bring in our poets biography, and also include picture study, artist study, composer study, and literature. The younger students explore myths and legends and the older students read through Shakespeare.
Each term concludes with a celebratory style book club where families bring food inspired by the book, dress up as characters, and share a favorite part.
Exact subjects may vary by year. There is a small cost to pay for materials, but accommodations can be made if this is a hardship.
We are a family style co-op with children of all ages. We are particularly dedicated to fostering intentional community among Catholic homeschoolers. If you are not Catholic, but are interested in joining please contact us.

Charlotte’s Circle – NoVA
This group was created for Charlotte Mason families to have a nurturing community to grow with - children and moms alike. To help achieve this goal we meet out of doors every Thursday throughout the year at local parks for free play, hikes, sharing of riches, field trips, and more.
As a dedicated homeschooling meetup group in Northern Virginia, we value the strong relationships we've built with our community over the years. It's more than meeting once a week. We seek to do life together.
