Vision Statement

To provide a Christ-centered classical education to our children through a weekly co-op where they can flourish under faith-integrated instruction, academic accountability, and within a caring community of like-minded families.

1. Faith-Integrated Instruction: 

   1. The home is the primary place of discipleship, and parents hold the responsibility to train up their children in the Lord. This co-op is a support system for home discipleship not a replacement. 

   2. Families will sign our Faith Statement to verify their agreement with the community. 

   3. Conversations of differing views outside of the Faith Statement will be handled with love and respect. 

   4. Subjects will be taught through a Christ-centered lens including Scripture, prayer, and connecting conversations. 

   5. Grades K-5 will have Scripture and hymn memory, and grades 6-12 will have specific Bible classes for age appropriate Biblical literacy, theology, church history, and apologetics. 

2. Academic Accountability:

   1. Parents are ultimately responsible for their child’s education, and they are the primary teachers. 

   2. This is not a drop-off program, and parents are expected to be present and involved throughout co-op days.

   3. Each adult present on co-op day will have a role which will be done on a volunteer basis with no payment. Cultivate leadership will work with your family to find the best fit.

   4. Curriculum will be chosen to provide a rigorous academic environment within a classical model. 

   5. Curriculum will include age appropriate discussions about difficult issues, differing opinions, and different worldviews. 

   6. We expect that families will complete their work weekly on a regular basis to the best of their children’s abilities. 

   7. Teachers will be in communication regularly with students and parents with expectations, feedback of work quality, and any behavioral issues.

3. Caring Community:

   1. Our families will encourage, extend grace and mercy, speak truth, and love each other in and outside of co-op days. 

   2. Families will commit to taking care of the facility during and after co-op days, leaving it better than they found it.

   3. We understand that the costs of a co-op are low, but the cost of time is high.

   4. Families will commit to weekly attendance to not only benefit themselves but the growth of the whole community.
