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.

Magical Moments: Kinder-garden

{photo by Danielle Collins}

This morning we have a sweet note from a parent to share, sent in by Track B mom Danielle Collins. Danielle, her husband Neil, and daughter Annabelle (Kindergarten) are in their second year at SLOCA. Here’s a quick look at how their home days are going so far this year:

Homeschool days have begun and we are getting into the groove of what resembles a more structured day. This year our daughter has “turned into a kinder-garden,” as she puts it, and we are enjoying our second year at SLOCA. I am continually reminded of how fortunate we are to participate in a hybrid system that allows for close parent involvement and a schedule that can be tailored to fit the individual daily routines of each family. For us, this usually means as much schoolwork as my daughter can sit still for at a time with frequent breaks to the chicken and goat pens to make sure things haven't changed since the last time we checked! At the end of a homeschool day, she and I are both so full from fun that it's hard to tease out what was actually assigned work and what was spontaneous play.

Thanks, Danielle! This puts a smile on our faces and is a great way to start a Monday. We are delighted that you and your family are here and thriving at SLOCA!
