Relieving parents of administrative stresses,

Regina Caeli, ora pro nobis!
Mantellum Matris Academy - "Our Blessed Mother's Mantle" - is a 32-year-old private school satellite program (PSP), or "umbrella school," which administratively supports Catholic and Catholic-friendly families who homeschool independently. Founded in California as a legal homeschooling option for California families, I also enroll and support families living anywhere around the Country.
As an MMA family, you enjoy the freedom of choosing and using the curricula and resources best suited to your family and each child's learning style and goals. You then enjoy the comfort of and confidence in knowing you are enrolled in a school-of-record with a director who shares your Catholic values and works to help you meet the home education requirements in your state.
In other words, MMA is your "umbrella" school,
while you remain in charge of your child's education!
As your director, I support parents while you engage your children. I take care of all your administrative needs, maintaining records and cumulative files as any school or principal would. I issue official transcripts, certificates, and diplomas as a private school and assist with any other related services as needed. While I neither dictate nor provide curricula, my consultation services are included with your enrollment.
Parents don the armor of their parental mantle to
raise and educate their own;
Mantellum Matris provides a mantle of expertise under
which they do so;
Our Blessed Mother covers us all within her mantle,
to her Son’s glory.
Please explore the website to discover all I offer and then feel free to schedule an appointment so we can discuss how I can best help!
