is to serve our homeschool community as the body of Christ &
provide support for TEACH families.

*We
will be meeting at St. John's Cathdral on Payson Road - a beautiful
location just 6 minutes from the Broadway Hyvee!
*We
currently do not have teachers for high school - but if you would
like to offer a class please contact us so we can set it up!
*Each
teacher is paid individually in full on the first day of class. If
you need other arrangements please don't hesitate to talk to the
teachers! We are all happy to work with you & will do what we can
to help. There will be helpers keeping track of payments the first day so the teachers can focus on their students
*12-14
students per class except Drama, which can take 30**
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Everyone
has a job, no matter how small! Please let me know with your
registration what you would like to do (your top 2 choices, in case
your first is already taken):
-set up
crew (2 needed): take pics of church classroom set ups, send to clean
up crew, & set up room for co op. This may require setting up a
table & some chairs, nothing too difficult & the pictures
won't need to be done after the first week or two bc clean up crew
will know what to do by then).
-clean
up crew (2): puts everything back where it goes, sweeps as needed,
quick wipe down of bathrooms, lights off, doors locked - we can all
help with this too!
-lost &
found (1): gathers left over papers, coats, lunchboxes etc &
brings back the next week. Donates unclaimed items at the end of the
semester. Contact this person if you've lost something!
-substitutes
(2): available to fill in if a teacher or her children are sick/on
vacation/etc.
-name
tags (1): we will have necklace-type nametags for each child with
name, emergency contact info & classes taking. This helper will
have a table out each Friday to hand out nametags & then collect
them at the end of the day.
-hall
helper (1 each hour=6): helps children find their way to/from
bathrooms, assists as needed if a teacher needs an extra hand in a
class, generally available
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is
a time for our fellowship as well! While you are welcome to leave Co
op, you are also welcome to hang around & visit, assist in a
class, or observe. Lunchtime will
also be an opportunity for fellowship - parents will need to be at Co
op during that time or have another parent responsible for
supervising their children. The playground & field will be
available for children to run & play during their lunch break -
as long as they are supervised by their parent/guardian for the day!
There will be no running around the church at any time...we must all
watch over each other's children for their protection as well as
protection for the church grounds & property. If we are able to
leave the church as good or better than we find it & treat the
space with respect, they will be happy to have us there & that is
what we want. They are not charging us for use of the space, but we
will collect a free will love offering at the end of each semester.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally,
on the subject of respect: nametags will have your child's schedule, your contact info, & 3
boxes; essentially 3 strikes & you're out. If a child is being
disruptive or disrespectful a teacher may mark a box as a warning. If
3 boxes are marked either by the same teacher or various teachers
throughout the day, the parent will be called & will need to sit
with their child for the remainder of classes that day. Then the
slate is wiped clean for the next week & they can try again.
However, if this happens a second time, their parent will need to sit
with them for all classes the remainder of the semester in order to
participate in Co op.

In
service & love,
