A Christian Homeschool Co-Op
An Overview of FEET
FEET is a Christian homeschool co-op of approximately 30 families. Student classes are offered by paid instructors for children from preschool through 9th grade.
FEET is unique in that it offers homeschooling moms and dads an opportunity for prayer, fellowship, and encouragement while paid instructors lead morning classes. A typical morning for a parent looks includes prayer, devotion, and fellowship with other homeschooling parents.
We meet approximately 15 times during the school year—every second and fourth Tuesday of most months, with classes from 9am-noon. Our co-op is held at Buffalo Covenant Church in Buffalo, Minnesota.
One parent from each family will be assigned regular chore duties, which include set-up or clean-up, as well as a Teacher's Assistant (TA) role. Chore assignments are given at FEET Orientation and will typically be 10-15 minute tasks. TA roles, assigned to parents of elementary kids or younger, are one-hour shifts in rotating classrooms throughout the year. They call for parents to act as an extra set of eyes and hands for the teacher. No preparation is required.
Please note:
- Elementary students must sign up for all three classes.
- Nursery-Grade 6 students require a parent on-site at all times. Middle School classes allow drop-off after approval.
