Tallahassee, FL

Tallahassee Mother Culture Book Club

This group meets once a month to discuss books we are currently work through. We try to read in the literary tradition and read through a variety of genres, following a general model of Mason's mother's education course. Our goal is to build community, give accountability in continuing of our educations, and provide a place for discussion for the ideas found in what we read.

We are a community of families inspired by the Charlotte Mason philosophy and believe that each child's dignity as an individual made in God's image is to be respected. Our group is grounded in shared Christian faith as expressed in the Nicene Creed. Whether you are new to Charlotte Mason or have years of experience, if you share these values and vision for education, we'd love to have you join our community as we learn and grow together.

We currently meet twice a month at a local park for casual hangout. Looking for more families with older kids/teens.

At Roots & Wings, we nurture wonder, wisdom, and wholehearted learning in a peaceful, home-based setting. Inspired by the Charlotte Mason philosophy, this two-day co-op offers young children a gentle and rich introduction to learning through living books, habit formation, music, nature play, and hands-on exploration. This Fall 2025 we will be starting a Preschool/Kindergarten Group. Not to mention a Parent Reading Group.

Arlington, TX

Commonplace of Arlington

Come and chat with us this year!

We are working through "Start Here," a study guide by Brandy Vencel. This is a great study for new-comers to the philosophy, but it also has plenty to ponder for the experienced. We will have time each meeting to talk about what's happening in our own home schools: celebrate the good and share ideas for those more-difficult spots. We meet two Saturdays each month and
have occasional outings and events for parents and children. Plans are also underway to start a brand new co-op in the Fall of 2026.

Reach out for more details and tell me why you are interested in joining a Charlotte Mason discussion group. Looking forward to getting to know you!
