This is our second year with our co-op and we love it, we belonged to another one before this one that was good. We had to move co-ops because the other one was really small so there was only one choice for each age group. Well one semester my oldest son, who is dysgraphic(writing LD), had to take a speech class and an artist/art class (with papers). It never failed the speech and papers(there was 4 of them) were always due on the same day. Finally on the last week I told him to choose one, he was going crazy.
So this co-op we go to now is great there is normally at least 5-6 classes to choose from during each class period. There are lots of families (we have 105 families in our co-op) and it has been going for a long time. This year we even got a yearbook it was great better than my high school yearbook. It was about 150 pages and pictures galore. It was worth the $20 and it is one more thing the kids don't miss out on, we also have homecoming and prom. It is great we are very blessed to have it.

Sounds like a great co-op! We don't have anything like that around here...plenty of opportunites for homeschoolers, but all individual things.
Hope your ds likes his archery class! I have a wooden recurve bow under my bed...dh & I did some archery when we only had 2 kids. The bow is waiting til they are strong enough to shoot it!

Now this sounds like an awesome co-op. Your literature class sounds good and I would so love to take archery.
I would love if if our co-op had a year book. I know they talked about it, but it didn't happen. :o(
Sounds like you & your kids are going to have a blast!
