 No, we are a secular group that welcomes diversity in belief systems!

Nature Co-op:
For us it means creating an environment where kids and parents have equal contribution to shaping the evolution of our group. It also means that agreed upon rules are compassionately enforced by the group, rather than by one authority figure. While applying the concept to a homeschool co-op is a bit different than to a school, this quick video should help clarify!

Updated for Fall 2026 - 

RHH Nature Co-op:
Each week, we'll start by gathering to go over any group announcements and have a discussion about the day's nature study topic. From there, kids will be welcome to explore our learning stations at their own pace and as their interest suits them.

Families often come early or stay late to play and explore the beautiful grounds of Camp McCormick (Monday) or Nature at the Confluence (Tuesday)!

Synergy Co-op:

Synergy is our class-based co-op. Arrival and announcements start at 9:45am, and classes run from 10:00am–2:30pm. The day is broken into four 1-hour sessions with a 30-minute lunch break in the middle, and each session includes a minimum of 3 separate age groups so there's something age-appropriate for every child.

RHH Nature Co-op & Synergy Co-op:

Our co-ops are not drop off, however we understand that schedules don't always mesh, and things come up. We just ask that if you can't make it to the meet-up, that you have made arrangements with another adult to be responsible for your kids while you're gone.
