Some of the reasons our families love Catholic Schoolhouse

Our chapter families have many reasons they love using CSH. Whether it is just for the weekly in-class chapter days, or if families utilize the memory work as part of their at-home curriculum, CSH is a flexible option that keeps members coming back to year after year. Here are some of our favorites about Catholic Schoolhouse. Or, visit their national website to learn more.

National, Catholic, and Classical Program

Catholic Schoolhouse (CSH) is nationally produced classical education program designed to enrich the homeschool experience. Its content, mission, and organization are all loyal to the magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church. The program’s structure, memory work, and uniquely designed tools have been proven to work for years. Their mission and national team are supportive of all their local chapters, and member families, so that they may thrive in their communities as well as at home.

Flexible

Catholic Schoolhouse does not have to replace your at-home curriculum. Some members simply enjoy the class and field trip experiences for their children. Others incorporate parts of the CSH memory work into their home curriculum. And some use the CSH tour to guide their at-home learning. CSH enriches your homeschooling however you see fit for your family.

Exclusive Resources

CSH has built a private online community. Utilizing Basecamp, a web-based collaboration tool, members enjoy a single place for communication and information sharing. It includes a message board for important CSH related posts, a campfire where members share tips, ideas, and prayer requests.  Documents and worksheets to print (at no cost) and utilize in class or at home. And the opportunity to message and ask questions to help in your own lesson planning and homeschooling.

Family Cohesiveness

The unique structure of CSH engages students at all levels in the same subjects and topics through ways that meet their skills and needs. For example, if learning about insects: Pre-grammar students may have a sensory session looking at plastic insect figurines with magnifying glasses. Grammar scholars may identify insect characteristics, assemble paper bugs, pin specimens to a board, or look at insects under a microscope. This allows families to learn together and share with one another.

Quality Programming

Purchasable CSH materials are professionally produced and well made. The science and fine arts lessons are all pre-written and assembled into easy-to-follow instructions so that labs and artwork are highly engaging. And the exclusive songs produced to help students grasp and learn memory work oftentimes become a big part of family fun, roadtrips, and more!
