Description
What is Branches? Branches Mesa is a Christ-centered homeschool co-op community, that offers academic and enrichment classes, sports activities, and clubs to families with school aged kids (1st-12th grades) in the East Valley. If you do have younger kids, we offer a Mini-Branches program for families with school aged kids and younger kids. We meet on Wednesdays, from 8:45 to 12:45, in Mesa near Recker Rd. and the Loop 202/Red Mountain Freeway. We seek to create a close knit community where families feel they belong and are supported. We do this through a co-op (cooperative) model, where each family contributes in some way. We do this through a co-op (cooperative) model, where each family contributes in some way. What is a homeschool co-op? A homeschool co-op (or cooperative) is a group of families that come together one day a week and pool their resources to offer classes, both academic and enrichment, to children of all ages. By joining with other homeschooling families, responsibilities can be divided up and shared amongst the group. Costs are low for parent-led classes and are higher for teacher paid classes. Parents share expertise and resources with each other. Friendships are formed at the co-op and encouragement is readily available. Why join a homeschool co-op? Growing at a tremendous rate, there is estimated to be 40,000 homeschooled children in Arizona. The need for homeschool community co-ops has never been higher. Isolation is one of the biggest problems for homeschool moms and their children. By creating Branches, we hope to connect homeschool families to a support system and a local church.
