Co·op·er·a·tive /kōˈäp(ə)rədiv/ - noun - 1. a farm, business, or other organization which is owned and run jointly by its members, who share the profits or benefits. 

Adjective - 1. involving mutual assistance in working toward a common goal. "every member has clearly defined tasks in a cooperative enterprise."

As a cooperative model, we are a community of families working together to create an excellent learning environment for all our children.   We ask families to help 1/2 the time they are at co-op as they are able. This can be helping in your child's class, helping kids find their way through the building (hall monitor), helping to clean up, setting up for lunch, helping with the yearbook, taking pictures, helping with an event or field trip, taking a meal to a new mom, helping in the library. There are MANY ways to help. Coordinators exist to help you navigate co-op and are flexible and understanding, especially with moms of very young children. We understand you are here to participate and enjoy classes with your kids, and we have designed this model to ensure every family has time to fellowship and hang out.

The following questions help us determine a good place for you to serve.

Help lower your co-op costs. We desire to keep co-op very affordable for every family.   Here are some EASY ways to help raise funds and lower your class fees!

Girls Volleyball team sign-ups -  Season starts Aug 1 (must be 12yo before Aug 1 & not turn 20yo until after Oct 31)

BASKETBALL - Basketball season is Nov 8 -Feb 28 and coincides with winter break. Aside from learning the sport, the main purpose of our basketball program is to offer a place for socialization and connection. Many students build closer friendships, and families get to know each other in a smaller setting through this ministry.  

Basketball Summer Camp Sign-ups 7th - 12th Boys camps are June 26 - 29. All other camps (Cheer, 3rd - 6th, and Girls 7th - 12th) are July 10th - 13th

Please note the billing amounts and dates at the bottom of this form and record them in your calendar. Your card will be charged on these dates for the amount shown. You will also receive a confirmation email with a breakdown of each class and when each class will be billed. You can also create an account (recommended) to complete any class changes needed. Class changes can not be processed online after July 14, 2023. Only the teacher can authorize a refund after this date. 

You must add a second student BEFORE paying if you have multiple kids. If you have a student on a waitlist, you WILL NOT be able to add a second student and this will HOLD your registration for the first student (meaning they could lose ALL of their classes).  You can choose a class and put your waitlisted class in the comments.
The billing summary (below) only shows what you are paying today.  If you select payments above - additional amounts will be charged as outlined in "Grand Total of payments for all students."
