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.

{all photos by Jaime Mickey}

First, some news: the winner of our first Down Home blog drawing is: Cindy Hilton – Congratulations! Look for your gift card in your family file soon. And a huge thank you to everyone who participated and commented on the Homeschooling Words of Wisdom post. Many great ideas were shared and it was a lot of fun!

Today we share a few photos from our SLOCA Ravine day in July – it was a fun way to connect over the summer! By the way, we are always looking for more photos for our Monday Magical Moments – if you have any school or homeschool photos to share, please email them to Down Home or send us an email to ask for flickr directions.
