TEACH is a Christian Homeschool Support Group and a statement of faith is required. The Core Values and Beliefs can be viewed on the TEACH website under the "About" tab.

Step Two: Join Virtual Co-Op. Visit the TEACH website and log onto your account (once approved for membership). Click on the "Virtual Co-Op" tab and navigate to the "Virtual Co-OP Registration" tab. There will be a link at the top of the page to join co-op. The link will only work during the co-op registration period.  Please read all the information related to the semster before registering.  (This registers your entire family.) Pay the semester co-op fee before the registration window closes.)

A variety of Virtual Co-op class models are offered to allow teachers and students to have the best learning experience possible. Each class style is summarized below. 

• One Day Live Instruction- This model fits the majority of the Virtual Co-op class offerings. Live classes meet one day per week on the same designated day and time using Google Meet.
• Two-Day Live Instruction- This model fits select Virtual Co-op class offerings that benefit from an additional day of study. Two-day live classes meet two days per week on the same designated days and times using Google Meet.
• One-Day Live Instruction with In-Person Meetings- A few classes on the Virtual Co-op schedule fit this model. The classes using this model benefit from in-person collaboration, additional supervision for the in-person portion, or the use of lab equipment not typically found at home. The live class portion of these courses will meet one day per week on the same designated day and time using Google Meet. In-person class meetings will be on the days and times specified in the class description for registration.
• Flex Class-flex classes are a unique style of class allowing students an opportunity to complete the class around their schedule each week. The class does not require a live meeting and utilizes Google Classroom for assignments. Most classes require students to complete an assignment, watch a video lesson, or complete independent work or reading by a designated due date.  

Gather Events are planned activities for Virtual Co-op members to come together and build community. Without class changes and lunch times to socialize, this is an opportunity designed to help students meet their classmates face to face. Events vary and include park dates, STEM days, movie days, and more. A small fee may be required to cover supplies and location rentals for Gather Events. Check the Virtual Co-op Calendar for event details and dates.
