About Ambleside Ocala, Inc.

Too many educational environments reduce children to test scores, robbing them of their curiosity and wonder. Ambleside creates an atmosphere in healthy relationships, life-giving habits and timeless ideas so they are known, seen and prepared for what’s next in life. . Based on the pedagogy of Charlotte Mason, Ambleside belongs to the Ambleside Schools International network and is accredited through AI, NCPSA and Middle States. While the primary commitment of Ambleside School is to the Ambleside School children and their families, its mission extends beyond that of simply being a local school. We are held to the highest standard in our way of relating to one another. In an atmosphere of sincerity and truth, students are free to learn for the pleasure of learning. Students do not compete with their peers for rank, grades or prizes. Learning is the focus, not besting a classmate. Great ideas, great works of literature, great works of art, the glory of the created world, and common experiences of life are placed before the students to study and discuss. Students are stimulated to observe, explore and understand. At Ambleside, the goal of education is student growth. We measure progress by their reports of growth. Each student has a personal report that reflects their strengths and weaknesses. Growth in relational maturity, academic maturity, and specific disciplines of study. This report helps guide us in fostering a student's natural affinity with a wide range of knowledge. Such knowledge is conveyed and demonstrated by oral and written narration.
