Each class is supervised by Teacher Carly and three parents or caregivers, providing a high adult to child ratio and ensuring that each class goes smoothly. The class representatives assign the participation schedule and create a calendar at the beginning of each month. The monthly hours required from each parent or caregiver depend on the class size and frequency but families can expect to have an adult work in the classroom three to four times a month.

Check the Family Agreement page for more information about adult participation in classes.

Our various activities and fundraisers are all organized by co-op families working together on committees.

To keep our facility clean and safe, each family is responsible for having one adult available to participate in one cleaning shift during the school year without children present. There are limited options to forego fundraising and committee requirements for a fee. Contact fundraising@northtacomacoop.org for more information.

Each family is responsible for paying tuition at the beginning of each month or paying for the whole year in one lump sum.

Check the Fees & FInances page for more information.

Each family is required to earn eight parent education credits per year through activities such as attending orientation, taking positions on committees, attending events and so on. For the most part, routine participation in the co-op’s activities over the course of the year is more than enough to achieve this goal.

Check the Parent Education tab in the Parent Handbook for more information about ways to earn these credits.

Enrollment for the 2024-2025 school year, will be open February 24, 2024! If you have any questions about the co-op, or would like to start the enrollment process, please email our Membership Chair Laura Walters at membership@northtacomacoop.org
