Dear Fellow Co-op Members,

Welcome to the third year of the co-op. Much of the summer was spent in prayer and search mode for a new location. Last year's location is now under construction and thus the search began for this year’s co-op. Recently, we received the final approval to meet at St. Andrew's Catholic Community in Chandler, AZ. The space has four rooms close together, one of which has a piano, and a nearby field for PE and lunch. Due to their schedule, the rooms are available from 9:15-12:45. Our new schedule reflects these times.

Each year we do our best to take into account last year's successes and ideas for improvement and prepare for the upcoming year. One of the most crucial aspects was our in-service. This time of fellowship together allowed us to come together as moms ready to serve each other, the children of the co-op and grow in love and service together. Please mark your calendar for this year's in-service at the Diocesan Center in Phoenix from 6:00-8:30. All moms with children registered are required to come, nursing babies most welcome.

Please take a few minutes to thoroughly read through the e-information packet. Understanding the functions of the co-op and familial responsibilities will allow you to make a good decision about joining the co-op. The Sacred Heart Home Educator Cooperative is designed to offer classes to students who are homeschooling in the state of Arizona.
