"Every good gift of knowledge and insight comes from above."
​--Charlotte Mason

Welcome, Charlotte Mason friends!

While our classes are based on the award-winning classical Christian Tapestry of Grace curriculum, there are many striking similarities that we think might blend well with the Charlotte Mason approach to educating children. Here are just a few:

We Focus on Big Ideas

Our classes focus on big, beautiful ideas, rather than just memorizing facts. We spread a feast using living books that spark the imagination. And, we linger and look for the ideas that ruled the people and works we study, comparing those ideas to God's perfect Word.  

We Build Character

By focusing on what is good, true, noble, and beautiful, we think deeply with students, talking about those big ideas and the principles behind them, encouraging them to cultivate godly character and a love for God and the world around them. 

We Value the Child

We view each child as a whole person, not a developmental age, and work with parents to place students in the perfect course. Because we keep our class sizes small, teachers get to know each student, and students find our classes to be the perfect environment to explore and stretch and grow.  

Still have questions?

With teachers on staff who blended our classes with the Charlotte Mason approach with their own children, we are able to help you explore how you might fit right into our Lucerna family, as we look for God's fingerprint in every subject we study.
