We are an academic co-op which meets at White Bluff United Methodist Church on scheduled Fridays from 9:30 – 2:30. When joining our co-op, your student will be enrolled for a full day of classes. We are not an a la carte program. Our students range from nursery (infants) to High School Seniors.
Our preschool program provides children from 2 years old through kindergarten with a nurturing Christian learning environment. Children are taught skills such as letter/sound recognition and formation, counting, and beginning reading and writing skills through engaging, hands-on activities. Music, art, as well as lunch, afternoon snack, and outside playtime, are incorporated into their day.
Our elementary program consists of a 2.5 hour morning unit study centered around history and science followed by lunch then two, one-hour afternoon clubs, where kids can explore topics like cooking, PE, and art.
Our middle and high school program consists of three 1 hour morning classes where you can choose from a range of topics including foreign language, writing, geography, history, art, and more followed by lunch and a 1.5-hour afternoon science class.
We are a cooperative and not a drop off program. Parents must be available on Fridays to fulfill a volunteer commitment which is outlined in the Parent Volunteer Commitment form.
