Our History

Christian Family Schools (CFS) began as a support group for San Diego home educators. The first meeting in 1983 consisted of 20 moms and 55 children who were house bound by rain. From that humble beginning sprang a bimonthly newsletter distributed through a mailing list of over 1200 families, a board which makes decisions pertinent to the present and future of CFS, and over 20 area support groups, each with dedicated leaders.
