Our Mission: It is the mission of Ambleside to provide what Charlotte Mason called a “living education,” where each child is guided and empowered to author a full and free life, a life rich in relationship to God, self, others, ideas, and creation. Thus, our primary concern is the kind of student each child is becoming, not the mastery of particular data or technique, for we are confident that the student who masters the art of learning will attain his full potential for mastering data and technique. The student who masters the art of relating well to God, self, others, ideas, and creation will attain the fullness of life for which she was created.

About our curriculum

Samples of monthly curriculum

Our Faith: We begin with the conviction that the fullness of God’s plan for humanity is revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. He is both the example and the source of living a full and free life. The commandments to love God and to love one another are fundamental in the outworking of a fully human life.

Why Charlotte Mason? Ambleside School founder, Maryellen St.Cyr, calls Charlotte Mason, not an inventor, but a discoverer of good ways to teach that have been used all along: teaching students to pay attention, providing the richest materials, holding them accountable for what they learn, establishing an atmosphere of freedom to take risks, and maintaining high expectations for excellence.
