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.

The Character Issue

It is our last character trait of the school year! When we think about stewardship, some of us usually think about managing money, and though it’s certainly a good idea to teach kids how to make wise financial choices, perhaps you could ask your kids these questions: What about managing one’s mind? Are we careful about how we use our minds, and what we fill them with? How can we take good care of our bodies? What about being good stewards of our time, and using it with proper regard for others? How do you think we can best be responsible for our property, or the environment? Try having a conversation with your children about these aspects of Stewardship, and see what they think.

Our definition of stewardship is,

“The careful and responsible management of things entrusted to one’s care, including one’s mind, body, time, money, environment, property, with proper regard to the rights of others. Catch phrase: Take care of your stuff; take care of their stuff!”

Here’s our last character artwork by Sabina Zink. Thank you again, Sabina, for sharing your beautiful pieces with us!
