Information Meetings are gatherings where we discuss the tenets of the classical method and how our comprehensive CC curriculum puts that method into practice. Our programs are outlined to share the knowledge that parents are absolutely capable of homeschooling from the early grades through high school. Open Houses are opportunities to see our programs and leaders in action.
