General Class Information HH is a true cooperative meaning all members teach and serve. A parent from each member family commits to one of two options: lead teaching for one class and assisting for another, or co-teaching two classes for the entire school year on a team of at least two people. First year families will be assigned as teaching assistants. All other parents will choose or be assigned to a "teaching team" based on co-op needs and parent experiences. Lesson plans for your class are created by the team prior to the school year and implemented on a weekly basis during our operating weeks. By doing this, we are able to offer classes to our families for the cost of curriculum and supplies needed for each class. Just as a reminder, if you choose to homeschool your child you are still responsible for their schooling even when they are getting outside instruction here at HH Co-op. We want to help you with your homeschool journey, not take it over, therefore our classes are meant to supplement, support and encourage, but not replace, what is being learned at home. All classes at HH Homeschool Co-op require families to join our co-op and pay the registration fee of $40 for 1 child $60 for a family of 2 or more children. The registration fee covers background checks for teachers and basic needs for the co-op. Most classes you register for include a class fee as well. The class fee covers copies, basic supplies, and most lab fees for individual students. The class fee does not cover notebooks or text books unless specified in class description. In addition, you will need to purchase some basic school supplies for each of your students such as paper, colored pencils, scissors, glue, etc. Some classes also require materials to be kept in 3-ring binders that you will need to provide as well. Teachers will provide a supply list for each level prior to our start date.
Types of Classes: HH has three main types of classes.
Co-op Classes: These are classes that are taught by parents and/or outside volunteers that have the ability to teach on that topic. These classes will have a class fee associated with them that varies depending on the class activities.
Tuition-Based Classes: These are classes where a “tutor” who is educated and/or gifted in a particular area (such as Spanish) offers classes at HH. These classes have a fee associated with them paid to the instructor that is in addition to the co-op registration fee. They are all high school level classes and a transcript grade will be issued if all fees and tuition are paid in full by the end of the year. Students will not be allowed to register for the next school year if tuition or fees for the current school year are still outstanding.
Nursery/Preschool: These are only available for siblings of co-op students who are children of teachers and volunteers.
*Please note: All preschool/nursery children must be free from separation anxiety and able to be left in a classroom without their parent. We cannot guarantee, parents serving only in their children’s class.
*Please note - Classes may be added, deleted or changed to a different time period based upon registration and availability of teachers. Some classes have minimum and maximum student requirements.
