Q:

A:

$30 Membership Fee per family, per semester

The fees for each individual class vary between 0-$25 depeding on needed supplies. 

Q:

A:

BCCHE is happily a cooperative and not a private school.  Co-ops becomes what we, our childrens educators, put into them.  The beautiful thing about a co-op is that parent's talents and energies and love for their children combine into a wonderful opportunity for friendship, community, and education.  It is the hope that families who join this co-op would desire to create engaging educational and social experiences for the homeschooled children of our region, and that they want to make Monday mornings magical. 

Practically speaking, here is what the administrators of BCCHE will expect of particpating families...

One parent from each family is required to be present every co-op morning.  Prior to each terms commencement participating parents can sign up either to teach a class, or to fill a job/role during the morning (assisting in classes, cleaning up, subbing for teachers, etc.).  Every mom or parent will usually have one free hour during our co-op morning to connect with other members.  Co-op teachers determine what to teach (with some helpful oversight from the administration team if necessary) and how much to charge to cover supplies, so the class offerings vary widely each semester.  Parents who teach a class get the added benefit of registering their children for co-op classes a week early, so they have the first pick of classes. 

Q:

A:

Absolutely! Email one of the BCCHE administrators on the contact page to set up a time to visit. The only weeks not open for visiting are the first and last weeks of each semester.
