Homeschooling and Co-ops

Image Source

We have been a part (to varying degrees) of a homeschool co-op for several years now. Last year, and this upcoming year will be the most we have participated so far. I am very thankful for our homeschool co-op (in our homeschool support group) and thought this might be a great blog post for some of you to read. This is a great one for homeschooling families.

We have been in 2 co-ops over the years. One when the girls were much younger. It looks to me like co-ops can be very different. However, I do believe most can be a benefit. I will say that I have heard from one Mom that using a co-op during her first year of homeschooling (with little ones) was a bit overwhelming. I did not use a co-op until I had been homeschooling for several years and I think that works out just fine. I really think the MOST important time to use a co-op starts in middle school but especially in high school.

Let me know what you think.
