3. Drop Off Fees- If you do not want to volunteer, you may pay $150/class per child for morning classes. This is available for high school teens upon approval by the Steering Committee. Electives (9 weeks) are available for drop of for $75/class/child

4. Attendance Fee (Refundable) - Families who attend co-op (Not Drop-off) are required to pay a $100 Attendance fee. The fee is fully refundable if the volunteer parent is absent 4 or less times during the school year. After 4 absences, the Attendance Fee is no longer refundable.

Q:

Does a family have to sign up for all classes or can they choose a la carte?

A:

Families may choose whatever is best for their family. You may choose to come for all or some of the classes. However, we do prioritize registration for families choosing to enroll in all morning classes and then open up registration for families who want to use the a la carte option. 

Q:

Are parents required to volunteer or teach?

A:

Yes, Heritage Oaks is a volunteer-based co-op. In order for classes to operate smoothly, all parents are required to volunteer during the class period's they attend. All parents are required to teach something during the year (either all or part of a class). 

 

The only exception is when a parent pays a Drop Off Fee so their child may attend without them.
