HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY! We had fun this week with a Valentine exchange during lunchtime. 💝

Yesterday at co-op, we had a noisy good time with some "Indoor Olympic" games and a bunch of cotton snowballs! Now we are getting ready for the Valentine Exchange next week!

What a great first day of co-op for 2026! Lots of enthusiastic kids and helpful moms made for a smooth beginning to our Winter Session. Learning a whole song with boomwhackers and playing it together in less than half an hour was a highlight for me! And Spanish class dove into some big verb concepts. See you all next week! 🤗

Exciting news! Next week at 9am, before Week 2 of co-op classes, we will open the school library at church for book check out! So plan to come early and look for a favorite series or find a new favorite. 📚📖

Co-op classes begin next week, January 15! 📝Some of the classes offered for the winter session are Essay Writing, Seasonal Nature Study, book study for 6-12th grade, Calisthenics Fun, Conversational Spanish, US History, Baroque period art history and project, Hand Chimes choir....and more!

WE DID IT! Yesterday we had our Class Presentation Ceremony for the fall session wrap-up. What a great time listening to our kids and teachers sharing about the learning that took place. I liked observing how many of the kids “warmed up” and started talking freely to the audience by the end. A big thank you to Steve who filmed the presentation for us (copies for families coming soon!) and to the three church ladies who worked in the kitchen several hours to help us with the pizza and potluck. And of course THANK YOU to all of our hardworking parents, teachers, and students for a successful first session!

We have a family presentation every week at co-op! Yesterday, the Ridinger brothers brought in a great family tree project for their family presentation.

Yesterday was also the last class day of our fall session. What a great start for the co-op! Winter session classes begin in January. New families are welcome to register now!
