Calvert Community

Linking Home Schooling Families

At Calvert, we work hard to create a sense of community for our homeschooling families. Though every family's experiences and location is different, each family shares a common bond—the Calvert program.

Whether you are home schooling in a small rural community, a big city, a friend country, or in a boat sailing around the world, chances are that other children are tackling the same Calvert lesson as you each day. We try to build on this commonality of experience by giving our families a number of ways to share with one another. In all of these programs, we hope to build a sense of community among people who value their use of Calvert School’s program.

Student Community
