Writing a New Chapter
There is only one choice. Like the saplings our Tracks class plant each year, like the children we raise, we must grow. We'll become a school that will safeguard a space of play, of creation, and of curiosity for children ages 2 through 8.
Why "Buy-in" is Part of the Cooperative Experience
We have time to talk about books she has "from school." These same books are shared via weekly updates written by the teachers for the teaching team. The teaching team consists of co-oping parents and teachers. We work in partnership, but the only way the partnership works is when parents "buy in."
What a cooperative school offers parents
Cooperative schools were formed to provide mothers with work experience along with continued and diverse educational opportunities. All that was housed in a communal effort with childcare because women know instinctively that we are stronger together.
The Future is Here
We have the future inside the walls and garden of our little cooperative school. We know the future surrounds us and is being cared for carefully. And here it is about community and the strength of "we." The future may not be evenly distributed, but it will be. Yes, it will and it will start with "we."
