“My kids and I have really enjoyed being a part of this community through the gatherings and field trips with the meetup, and through being involved in the co op classes. I recommend the meetup group and the co op classes!”

“Really thoughtful and well done classes! Instructors were very prepared and classes were well controlled. I was thankful kids were encouraged by the teacher to stay on task and that she held their attention. Very well done!
