Ambleside is a nonprofit private Christian school for the Hill Country, committed to setting the standard for practice in Charlotte Mason education and establishing a resource and seedbed for educators and schools. Our long-term goal is to create a global Ambleside community of schools united in the practice of Ambleside education. Ambleside provides a broad and varied curriculum of inspirational and disciplinary subjects, through direct encounter with literary living books and living art, music, science, mathematics, geography, language, nature, and handwork. We offer small classes and minimal homework in the elementary school. No standardized tests or letter grades are used. Our main pedagogical method is written or oral narration. Twice yearly essay exam periods are an important educational tool at Ambleside. An opportunity for students to bring forth and show what knowledge they have attained, exam time is a call to synthesize and summarize, master and make sense of main ideas and facts, while developing the child's competence in clear thinking and verbal expression. At Ambleside, all children participate in the broad curriculum-all children calculate, solve, attend, explore, ponder, recite, paint, and sing. We strive to offer students the richest materials along with our highest expectations of what they can accomplish. We expect every student to learn and grow to full potential as a person, born in the image of God, into a vast inheritance. Ambleside School admits students of any race, color and national or ethnic origin.
