New Leaf Cooperative

New Leaf is a cooperative preschool learning community that meets Wednesday mornings in the parks and wild spaces of the greater Charlotte area. Our aim is to encourage young children and their families to connect with nature and their sense of wonder through stories, songs, exploration, and play.

We welcome you to join us as we share our time, knowledge, and resources to create thoughtful gatherings and teachable moments.

Charlotte’s Circle

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.

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!

Cottage Co-op

Cottage Co-op is a riches co-op for students aged 6 to 12 years old.

Our Friday meetings begin with gathering all together as families for
our folk song and hymn, announcements, and benediction.

Forms 1 & 2 enjoy time in Collective learning about a classic poet, artist,
and composer. Forms 1 & 2 also alternate weekly between nature study
or handicrafts. Both forms then end their co-op day with a game time
devoted to play, listening skills, and folk dances.

A typical Kinderleben class spends the first portion playing outside
making mud pies, rolling around in leaves, and searching for the largest
worms. We come inside to read stories and poems, recite a bible verse,
and learn new fingerplays. We might play with wooden train tracks or
clay, or practice sewing before all working together to clean up.

DeLand, FL

Charlotte Mason Mothers Book Club

We meet once a month on the 2nd Tuesday from 6:30-8pm in the DeLand area (West Volusia County) for book reading, thoughtful discussion, and community.

Our book selections will be faith-based and reflect Charlotte Mason's philosophy, but you don’t need to be a strict CM homeschooler to join—just bring your love for learning, conversation, and home education!

Nursing babies are always welcome. :)
