The question is not, how much does the youth know when he has finished his education, but how much does he care? And about how many orders of things does he care? In fact, how large is the room in which he finds his feet set? And, therefore, how full is the life he has before him?

A LIVING EDUCATION
Ambleside Concho Valley fosters educational renewal based on Charlotte Mason’s philosophy and practice. We serve the San Angelo and surrounding Concho Valley community by providing a living education to students and families.
Here your child is viewed as a complete person, created by God with a desire to learn. We engage your child with a relational method, rich curriculum and the gentle formation of academic, moral, and interpersonal habits.
An Ambleside Parent Shared…
“From the first day of school, I could tell Ambleside was going to be a different experience for my child. Normally his response to my question, “How was your day?”, would be “Boring” or “I have sooooo much homework.” But now when I ask “How was your day?”, his normal response is “Great!”, and he proceeds to tell me about the things he learned that day.
He literally talks for about thirty minutes about what was discussed at school…very unusual for an eleven year old. His focus has shifted from merely getting a particular grade on a test, to simply learning….and he’s learning a ton!”
