High School And Beyond

Image by Kristine A from Pixabay

I look forward to presenting Transcripts for a Charlotte Mason Educator. I had the opportunity to share this workshop at The Weekend of Living Ideas this past fall, and between the questions I received there and those that continue to come in by email, it is clear that Charlotte Mason families have a great need for support during the high school years.

Even though some of us will have an extra day together and there will be opportunities for consultations with Art Middlekauff and Jennifer Taylor, our time at the CMER will still feel short. With that in mind, I want to recommend a resource accessible to both local and nonlocal families. 

The Christian Home Educators of Colorado offers an excellent seminar, High School and Beyond. I had the privilege of attending this seminar when my own family was on the verge of entering high school, and it was invaluable. It is available in person (Castle Rock, January 10th) as well as through on-demand recordings.

Several team members and speakers have walked the road to high school graduation and beyond. Collectively, we have experience with students who have pursued college, the military, and gap years. Many of the families attending the retreat bring their own rich experiences as well. For those seeking encouragement, we are eager for the many high school discussions that will take place throughout the retreat.

We hope to see you there!

CMER 2026: A New Thing

We are doing a new thing at CMER 2026! To mark the occasion of our tenth retreat, we are offering a Mini-Retreat option in addition to our Standard Retreat. The Mini-Retreat may be combined with the Standard Retreat or taken on its own.

The Mini-Retreat begins on Thursday with a lovely meal at The Hideaway followed by a presentation by ’26 plenary speaker, Art Middlekauff, on Mason’s foundational twenty principles. Then we will gather for dessert and a time with the CMER teens.

We start Friday morning off with a pre-breakfast immersion session with Art using Mason’s commentary on the Gospels in verse, The Saviour of the World.

After breakfast, we resume our immersion lessons with the CMER Planning Team tackling such subjects as history, geography, literature, Shakespeare, and more. Lunch follows, and we convene once more to go over the experience. What did we notice? Were there new ideas for us as a CM educators? What will we take-away?

And before you head home or into the Standard Retreat offerings, there is time for personal reflection or enjoying the beautiful surroundings at The Hideaway.

Whether you are new to CM or a veteran practitioner, we invite you to join us.
