Over the summer, we want to share ideas that will help you successfully run your co-op. Sometimes, families have different visions for the academics in a co-op and success depends on clear communication so families know what to expect! This podcast is going to help you make sure your class descriptions are clear so that expectations can be realistic for everyone involved. Make sure you get some pen and paper to take notes!

Proverbs 16:23 The hearts of the wise make their mouths prudent, and their lips promote instruction.

On this live Q&A, Amy Holland joined me to debrief our HS mission trip to Puerto Rico. Stay tuned to hear all about it!

High school trips can be an amazing time to grow closer to one another and closer to God. I’ve seen some real spiritual transformation and relationship transformation on these trips. It’s a special time to be one on one with the highschoolers as they get ready to launch. Do you want to plan a HS trip, but don’t know where to start? A great way for us to help is to jump on a coaching call. We can help you get the ball rolling and send you on your way or walk you through the entire process.

It may not seem like the time to be talking about progress reports or conflict in the classroom, but actually this is the perfect time! Setting up your co-op for success begins with your teacher training over the summer. We all want to help our mentors and students succeed in class, and giving feedback is an essential part of that. How do you give and receive feedback in a way that doesn’t feel like shame or blame? We need to share information to help kids have the tools to be successful! Stay tuned as we share a simple tool that will motivate mentors and encourage parents in the process.
