Welcome to Down Home, San Luis Obispo Classical Academy’s blog! We are a classical school offering several options to make our education work for families with infants through high schoolers. Our signature hybrid program, which is part-time classroom and part-time home instruction, provides an engaging education for preschool through middle school (with full time options available). We also have a university model high school. This blog is meant to support and encourage on the home front because, in so many ways, the heart of what happens at SLO Classical Academy happens down home.

Semper discentes—always learning together.

Looking for a fun family outing this weekend? Visit the Monarch Butterfly Grove in Pismo Beach while the butterflies are still here! (If the weather is nice, that is…) Docents provide daily talks at 11 am and 2 pm. For many families this is a yearly tradition, but in case you’ve forgotten about this gem, we wanted to remind you before the season ends (usually late October through February) . Click here for more info about the monarch butterflies, and activities for kids.

If you can't make it this weekend, next weekend (February 4th), the Butterfly Grove is planning to celebrate California Western Monarch Day from 10 am – 4 pm. There will be butterfly talks and educational booths for adults, as well as art activities for children. And of course, the thousands of Monarchs hanging in huge clusters from the eucalyptus and pine trees in the grove. 

Complete the adventure by traversing the trail out to the beach afterward and playing in the dunes or taking a walk along the shore. How about a picnic? A delightful family afternoon is in the works! 

Whatever you do this weekend, Down Home wants to cheer on your efforts to spend quality tech-free time with the people you love most.
