Encouragers Co-op is a parent led co-op. Parents need to be available the whole time their children are participating in the co-op. From the playground to the classroom every member is essential to make our co-op run.
2. What is required of members?
Each semester, members are required to assist in a classroom and help with light clean up of classrooms at the end of the school day.
3. Can I leave the campus during co-op?
Parents are required to be on-site while their child is participating in classes or any events at co-op.
4. What if I go out of town or have an appointment?
Parents are encouraged to inform their childs facilitators of upcoming absences or late arrivals.
5. What if someone in my family is sick?
Out of an abundance of caution and care for others, please keep your child home, if they are displaying any signs of illness or fever.
6. What is the member fee for?
The Encouragers Co-op member fee is an annual fee that is paid at the beginning of each school year. The fee helps cover the cost of the co-op website, insurance, operational expenses, such as paper goods and cleaning supplies and is used towards providing our host church with an end of year gift for the use of their facility.
7. Do I have to attend co-op all day?
Families register for and attend only the classes they choose based on their personal needs and schedule. Some families may attend only one class while others may attend all day. Whether a family takes one class or several classes, co-op members are still required to assist in a classroom and help with light cleaning duties 5-6 times, per semester.
8. What do parents do when they are not helping in a class and their children are participating in a class?
Encouragers Co-op is a homeschool support group and ministry. While children are in classes parents are encouraged to gather in the foyer or sanctuary area to fellowship, work or RSVP a study room, if a quiet space is needed.
