We asked our student how she would rate NMM and she said 10/10. After the competition we asked her if she could travel back in time one year, knowing everything about NMM that she knows now, would she encourage or discourage herself to participate in NMM. She said she would still encourage herself to do it because she knows it is helping her grow and trust in the Lord.

I can’t think of a more significant experience to capstone F/E. This was probably the biggest, most memorable event of my student’s young life and it has highly impacted mine too! It seems silly but this was so much more than just memorizing and money, it was so God-filled!

For me it was a final celebration of the memory work of Foundations and Essentials and a welcoming shift into the Challenge years and deeper learning. The competition was filled with laughter, celebration, and meaningful friendships. It wasn’t about winning, it was about glorifying God.

Our family had a magical experience at NMM. The kids bonded in a very special way and the event gave us a deeper appreciation for the goodness and beauty of CC. It truly was special for us to see the large community of CC and realize what an incredible group of families we are a part of. It was a taste of the heavenliness! We are so grateful for this very special once in a lifetime moment our family got to experience.

Having both graduated from the CLC, we have appreciated the transformative influence in our marriage, family, and local community relationships. We practice hospitable assessment when mentoring others or solving problems at work and home.

Completing the CLC was the best thing I have done in terms of taking my skills as a classical educator to the next level… it deepened my understanding of the classical skills of learning and more clearly revealed to me the connection between education and discipleship.

When parents and tutors invest time, talent and treasure into the CLC as mentees, they find they come away refined as human beings in how they live and lead at home and in community, CC and otherwise.

By far, the single best thing that has helped me direct and talk with parents, has been the CLC. It has helped me be a better director, a better parent, and a better leader.

The CLC points us to the Lord and guides us to find truth, beauty and goodness in the subjects we study, but also the relationships within our group, with our families, and with our CC communities.

As I have attended the CLC and CLC practicums, I have found fellowship with others…the Mentors in particular, who have poured into my life and understanding the balm of gentle and kind assessment, leading me to even more faith and good works.

CLC was the perfect amount of time: every other week for two hours, with six meetings. It was manageable and the cost was well worth it! The lessons my mentor presented each time were great, and it was a growing experience.

CLC has been great in helping me follow a form in preparing my lessons at home . . . I think through the lessons . . . and how to relate them to the students and create a desire to learn the material. The questions have been very helpful in assessing that the students are following the lessons, too.

The CLC has had the single largest positive impact on my growth as a classical educator. It is the reason my class feels successful on community day, and it has changed how I give assessment.

My Essentials classes are far more engaging, and I am able to clearly see the important pieces of the lesson . . . with the specific students I am walking with, and I’m better able to bring those two elements together in a meaningful way.
