Scholé groups?

[Wolf Pack]

I'm intrigued by the scholé groups thing, but not sure totally what to make of it. Is anyone part of one? It looks to me like you need a director, and the group is actually a co op that does classes together. Is that right?

I have never heard of them before, but your post made me chuckle. Schole and co-op and not 2 words I would ever utter together! :)

Do co ops not immediately strike you as restful? Hahahaha.

Looking at their website, the Schole groups are classical at the core, but with restful learning as an emphasis. At first I just thought they were groups you could start up to have as a support and activity group, but it looks more involve than that.

It's much more involved. You (and everyone in your group) have/has to follow a specific curriculum.

 

Here is the detailed info. Scroll down to the Scope and Sequence to see the curriculum.

 

The cost will be $100 / yr per student/family. The group can follow any curriculum, so long as they include the required subjects. The group is supposed to work together; virtually, locally, however.

there is one forming near me and I believe they will meet weekly and focus on some classical subjects in nature...in a restful way.  It's too far for me to get involved, but the moms seem excited and I wish I could check it out.  While we did a lot of classical style in the younger years, our high school is going to be more interest led.  But the one coming near me isn't a co-op, but more of a weekly learning group to help each other support their classical endeavors.  I believe several already do CC.
