Wisdom Seekers Homeschool Co-op 2019-2020 Class Descriptions
Wisdom Seekers Homeschool Co-op offers biblical worldview enrichment courses for local homeschooling families in Madison County and the surrounding area. Classes are offered every Friday from September to April at Hull Baptist Church. Wisdom Seekers is NOT "a drop & leave" co-op as we encourage participation from the family as a whole to unite our community. All classes are parent-led, which requires the parent educator to facilitate a class for one hour during Fall or Spring Semester. Nursery, DiscoveryLand Kids, and Kingdom Kids teachers teach year round. For all other classes, teachers will lead a class for one hour during Fall or Spring Semester and assist in the class as needed. All teachers remain in the same class for the entire year and will work cooperatively as a team. Each March all returning and new families meet to plan the upcoming co-op year. All classes, field trips, and many more subjects are decided at this time.
