Parent Involvement:
Parents are an essential part of a child's growth and development. Parents are also an essential part of a commonwealth. As a commonwealth the work of inspiring children is shared in a method that is greater than what individual can do on their own. Each individual has hidden talents and knowledge that excites them. This is an opportunity to share your passions and interests with a community. There are many opportunities to teach classes to all ages of youth and children. Understanding the need to balance the classes we will work with you to find a class and level that you are motivated to teach.
Parent Growth:
Parents are a huge part of homeschooling, and every parent needs to feel supported. A huge part of the commonwealth is supporting the parents, studying and growing together as a community. Parent meetings, training, discussions, retreats, etc are part of the vision of building a community for the whole family.

There is a 1/2 day option - I understand that young families want to be home for naptime, so you may come only in the morning. Please let me know if this is your plan so I can make sure you are teaching in the morning.
Classes:
Teachers and classes are needed for every level. Teachers will be expected to plan their class and submit a plan and cost per student for the class. The cost will be covered by the student fees.
Classes should be largely self contained. Homework is not encouraged until scholar classes, but optional enriching activities may occasionally be offered.
