Our treasurer will email an invoice with the Application Fees, along with payment instructions.

*Note: Additional class fees will be determined over the summer and payment will be required at orientation in August. These fees range from $10-$250, depending on the class. Families are responsible for purchasing textbooks or curricula as requested by the teacher. Estimated class fees can be found in the class descriptions, but are subject to change until they are finalized.

Please know that if an invitation is extended to your family to become a part of Shanan Co-op, you will be required to complete a background check and be cleared.

Once a family is registered for the year, they will be expected to stay in co-op for the entire school year. Fees will not be refunded after acceptance of the application. If a family withdraws after the registration deadline, they will be ineligible to participate in co-op for two full years. (Exceptions will be made on a case-by-case basis with Board approval).
