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.

What’s so great about Classical Education?

Track A & B Kindergarten class
Pageant of the Masters

Parents at SLO Classical Academy have been enjoying the rich benefits of classical education for over six years now, but even with the experience of this education, some may still benefit from looking into this question with greater depth. Others may have heard of SLOCA from friends or neighbors and are curious to find out what we mean by classical education. On Thursday, February 9, 2012 at 6:30 PM, SLO Classical Academy will host a talk for parents and guests on the benefits and beauty of classical education. Our Associate Director, Troy Wathen, will provide an inspiring picture of a tried and true form of education re-purposed for this modern age.

If you are tired of education that is “data-driven” and taught to the test, this talk is for you. If you are asking the question, “will my classically trained child get into college?” this talk is for you. And if you just want to learn about this model of education that is growing in stature as others are in decline, this talk is for you. The folks at SLO Classical Academy are committed to opening our doors to the whole community for dialogue over compelling topics. Education is near and dear to our hearts so we look forward to this evening to share what makes classical education so great. We hope you will join us.
