FAMILY SCHOOL CO-OP

Legacy Family School

Sign-up is now open for 2024-25.

To register your family, please complete this sign-up form. Spaces are limited, and sign-ups will be taken on a first-come, first-serve basis. You will be notified if space is available for your family or if there is a wait list. Additional registration information will be sent to you to complete your family’s registration if applicable.

Family-led Learning

The family school co-op is a parent-led “co-op” based at Legacy on Fridays.

The goal of the Family School is to provide a gathering place and support for home-educating families. The Family School offers hands-on classes for students and community support for parents. Family members of ALL ages are welcome to attend.

Family School days begin at 9:15 with a devotional and classes are held from 9:30-12:30.

Participation in devotional is free and optional.

We strive to meet the needs of our families in the following ways:

  • Enrichment classes: Hands-on classes in creativity, STEM, and personal development are led by co-op parents. Parents work together in teaching teams to develop their lesson plans according to the needs of the children they are teaching.

  • Social time: Time is available for Family School students to socialize and build friendships on most Friday afternoons. This will include park days, potlucks, board games, and more. Field trips are organized monthly other than Friday. Youth activities are also held monthly on a Friday evening.

  • Parent support: A key part of the mission is strengthening parents in their responsibilities as education stewards. Moms can expect to find support and strength as they work together in teaching teams and volunteering. We believe that strong relationships between the moms is vital to the success of our program.  To support this effort we will also have a monthly gathering for moms held on a Friday evening outside of co-op. 

Youth Program

The Family School co-op has a strong youth program for teens (12-18). Our goal is to develop classes that will encourage personal growth, creativity, and friendship building in an environment that strengthens our youth through an emphasis on strong principles of personal integrity, leadership, and community. In addition to a variety of elective options, we follow a three year rotation for scholarly focus: (1) Growth mindset, leadership, and discerning truth; (2) History and government; and (3) Shakespeare, drama, and stagecraft. These youth classes are offered at two different levels: practice scholar (7th-9th grade) and scholar (10th-12th grade). We also provide leadership development for our youth in many ways, including the opportunity to serve on a youth council.

 

Fees & Additional Information

Families are charged a fee to help pay for the building and on-site resources shared with Legacy’s other programs. The tuition is per semester and determined by family size. All children count towards tuition with the exception of those in nursery. Fall semester 2024 runs from Sept 6 - December 20. Spring semester 2025 runs from January 17-April 25. 

Families with 1 child registered:

  • $220/family

Families with 2 children registered:

  • $265/family

Families with 3 or more children registered:

  • $300/family

Tuition covers operating costs of the facility. Each student will have a per semester class fee to be given directly to the student’s teaching team and to be used as their class budget. This fee is determined annually by the type of classes being offered. For the 2024-25 school year class fees will range from $10 (young children) - $30 (youth). 

Note: The Family School is designed to be organized and led by parents who stay and serve, thus there is not an option to drop off students. Families interested in dropping off should consider the 4-day or 2-day programs offered by Legacy Academy.
