ADDITIONAL INFORMATION...

General

• We are a Christian, academic co-op that meets every Thursday afternoon from 12:00-4:30pm at Northridge Fellowship in Rogers.

• We have approximately 50 families involved

• Our academic years is from September through April

  • We break mid-December for Christmas and start up again in mid-January

• Set-up starts at 12pm, announcements at 12:30pm, and 1st hour begins at 1:00

Parent Commitment

• Our moms are heavily involved, parent commitment is expected each week.

• We do not offer a drop-off option. Moms are required to be present for the entire duration of co-op.

• Before the new academic year, every mom is assigned a class & subject for the year. Every class is assigned 2 teachers, who equally share the teaching responsibility. For one hour every week, you are required to be in your assigned class. 

• On the weeks you are teaching, you can expect 1-4 hours (depending on the grade level & subject) of planning & prepping, at home, outside of co-op.

• The other 2 hours you are not teaching, you get to sit in the "moms room", eat a hot meal, and enjoy fellowship with the other members.

• All moms help with set up/tear down duties, take turns bringing food, and take part in a committee (planning field trips, setting up our mom’s room, yearbook committee, etc…)

• Because we are a parent-taught co-op, we are able to maintain very affordable membership fees.

Financial Commitment

• Yearly Membership Fees (per family) are estimated to be around $200 - $225 and are due upon acceptance.

• A Commitment Check of $350 is also required.  Checks are only deposited if a member defaults on their membership.

• Class fees (per class) are in addition to Membership Dues. They are determined by the teachers (to cover the costs of class supplies, experiments, crafts, activies, etc...) and average $10-50 per class.

Student Commitment

• All students take 3 classes each week. Each class runs 1 hour long. Two of these classes are "core" academic classes and the last one is an "elective" or fun class without homework or a gym time for our elementary classes.
