An Augusta Charlotte Mason Hybrid
Our Vision
Education is
an Atmosphere,
a Discipline,
a Life.
-Charlotte Mason
To serve families in the Augusta Georgia area with non traditional educational options. Plumfield House of Education (HOE) endeavors to partner with parents in the education of their children by providing a hybrid model of education. We seek to support parents in implementing a Charlotte Mason education for their homes, while enriching their curriculum with structured community learning in a variety of subjects. We hope to offer the best of both worlds, a homeschool foundation with all the benefits of a private school education.
Our Philosophy
-
Children are Born Persons and deserve a nurturing and respectful atmosphere to learn.
-
Children are neither good, nor bad, but are born with great potential.
-
Education should consist of the training of good habits, and exposure to living ideas.
-
A child’s education should be varied and generous with many subjects included.
-
Children are capable of grappling with great ideas and the curriculum choices should exercise their minds.
-
To “own” knowledge students must be able to communicate what they have learned through oral or written narration
-
Education should be relational. We do not seek to memorize facts, but to truly learn of things by building a relationship with broad subjects.
