Homeschool Local Co-ops
Co-ops are groups of families that have come together to provide classes. These are usually not drop-off situations. Parents are normally required to remain on site and participate in the operation of the co-op by teaching, helping, organizing field trips or acting as administrators etc... Fees vary greatly between groups.
