Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Co-Op offer tutoring or complete schooling?

No. We are not a "school". We are just home school families coming together to share experiences and certain classes once a week. These classes may include art, music, physical education, geography, or opportunities for speech. In the future, we hope to be able to offer our members the opportunities for National Spelling or Geography Bees and Science Fairs.

When does the Co-Op meet?

We meet from September through May with breaks for holidays at the Georgia Baptist Conference Center in Norman Park. Once a month, each class takes an age-appropriate field trip. For more information about meetings, contact one of our Executive Council members.

Can I participate without being a member?

We welcome any home school families to visit our weekly meetings once or twice to "check us out". Some of our activities outside of our regular meetings are open to all homeschoolers. Those who wish to participate in field trips and special events only can join at a discounted rate.
