  • Is A Homeschool Co-op Right For You?

    Have you ever considered joining a local homeschool co-op, but you weren't sure how your special learners would fit In? Or are you currently In a co-op that doesn't feel like the right fit?

    Nheree and Tracy are back (they joined us In episode 4), and we discussed homeschool co-ops.

    In this episode, you'll find out more about different types of homeschool co-ops, as well as questions to ask of co-op leadership. You'll also hear about how Important It Is to have an open line of communication with teachers and leadership. They will share with you how to work with a homeschool co-op to modify curriculum for kids with learning disabilities or other special needs.

    After listening to this episode, you will feel more comfortable with shopping for a co-op and finding one that Is a great fit for your family's current season of life.
