Children are Born Persons

Every child is created in the image of God. At our cottage school and co-op, this conviction shapes all of life and learning. We honor children as whole persons with minds made for truth, hearts formed for goodness, and imaginations awakened by beauty.

Living Oaks Cottage School is a Christ-centered Charlotte Mason community where education grows through relationships. We believe children flourish as they develop meaningful relationships with God, with their teachers, with one another, and with the living ideas found in great books. Within an atmosphere of attention, respect, and love, we cultivate wisdom, character, and a joyful love of learning. Together with families, we seek to nurture the whole child through the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty. Welcome to Living Oaks!

Living Oaks Cottage School is a two-day-a-week, drop-off learning community for students in grades 1–12. Teachers guide students on campus, while parents lead learning at home on the remaining days, with optional support from Living Oaks.

Living Oaks Cooperative is a parent-led enrichment community that meets every other week. For over eleven years, students and mothers have gathered to encounter truth, goodness, and beauty through Scripture, hymns, Shakespeare, art, handicrafts, worldview, and apologetics.
