Week 1, Fall 2026
We have offically started our Fall semester after orientation last week, and it was simply an amazing day! We did our best this semester to reduce our class sizes in order to provide more attention and better our ability to respond to the needs of our students. This required us to offer more classes and for more parents to teach. They agreed and off we went! So what are the kids learning about this semester? In no particular order:
🧁 Bite-Sized Baking introduces our youngest kiddos to baking in small sizes, perfect for tiny hands!
🐞 Backyard Buddies explores local insects, touching on life cycles, cool facts, and crafts.
🩰 Dance allows two of our age groups to learn about ballet and modern styles, while also celebrating the freedom of movement.
🦁 Zoology gives two groups of our youngest students an opportunity to learn about different animals each week.
⏰️ Inventors and Inventions allows the kids to deep dive into interesting and groundbreaking inventions that impact their lives today.
🐠 Marine Biology explores the oceans and its animals, giving students the chance to build on concepts in particular subject of science.

⛺️ Survival Skills challenges our oldest students to participate in different survival activities each week.
🔤 Preschool/Pre-K is the foundation of our amazing co-op, providing a space for our 3-4 year olds to learn, play, socialize, explore, and be introduced to a teacher who is not their parent.
We have a whopping 27 classes this semester! And it would not be possible without absolute dedication from our parents. We also run a nursery for our babies and toddlers. There is so much hard work that is put into making a co-op day run smoothly. Being a true collaborative co-op has really ensured that our focus remains where it should... on the kids!!
