Willow Creek Gathers 
Homeschool Co-op

“The question is not, how much does the youth know when he has finished his education, but how much does he care? And about how many orders of things does he care? In fact, how large is the room in which he finds his feet set? And, therefore, how full is the life he has before him?”  
-- Charlotte Mason

Our C​o-op

We meet in Greer, SC to provide a living education, education is the science of relations. We view children as a complete person and teach them with rich curriculum and help them grow with gentle formation of knowledge and character. Charlotte Mason summed up her teaching in three words, beautiful, expansive, and efficient.  

 We are are group of families that want to give our children a rich education. During our co-op days we gather together to study nature, Shakespeare, art, Plutarch, music, geography, and handicrafts. The parents all volunteer and are active on-site during co-op day, each week. We offer recitation nights twice a year with one of those featuring a play performed by the children in the co-op.  

 Outside of co-op days, we want to 'do life' with each other and connect frequently. In addition, the moms meet regularly to learn more about the Charlotte Mason method as well as strengthen our bonds. Family nights are also offered as it's vital for the whole family to have a supportive community and socialization.
