As a homeschool cooperative, Beloved Community Co-op requires all parents to serve in three ways:

1. Lead teach or assist with teaching (all families share the responsibilities for teaching & assisting)
2. Volunteer on co-op days in supporting roles such as set-up, clean-up, and front desk duty
3. Serve on at least one co-op committee per school year.

Beloved Parents working together in this manner enables us to offer high-quality, affordable learning opportunities, along with exciting and fun activities such as Chapel, Teen Hangouts, Mom Connects, family camping weekends, guest speakers, numerous field trips, and Open Mic! RECITE!^TM nights, and much more!

Parents who require an exception due to special or unique circumstances are encouraged to speak to the co-op directors regarding special arrangements.

Prospective Families are invited to attend one of our spring open house days to learn more about the co-op community. Once families have decided that Beloved Community Co-op is a good fit for their families, they are invited to complete a family application and schedule an interview with two community leaders (executive directors and/or board members). Following the interview, families will be notified of the board's decision regarding applications. 

Accepted families are invited to secure their spot by submitting a family deposit, which will be applied toward the following academic year tution & fees.
