The Reach Co-Op
Christ Centered
The REACH homeschool co-op is an organization of Christian homeschooling families in the Richardson area and beyond who come together to combine our gifts and talents to provide a variety of learning and social opportunities in a Christ-centered environment for the benefit of our students.
REACH members must be professing Christians who have agreed to lead and manage their respective co-op activities according to biblical Christian principles and to support and reinforce the complete REACH Statement of Faith.
When & Where We Meet
REACH has served the homeschool community in Richardson, TX since 2001. We meet at Central Christian Church located at Campbell & Plano Rd. Our co-op offers academic, supplemental and enrichment classes for all ages. We meet 12-15 Fridays each fall and spring from 12pm-4pm for 3 hours of classes that provide a variety of educational experiences. We also meet outside of our regular co-op time for a variety of optional field trips and a monthly Mom’s Night Out. In the summer we meet for park days and other fun summer activities.
Parent Participation
Our parents are the heartbeat of our co-op. Co-oping is much like homeschooling. It is a lot of work. REACH parents are enthusiastically committed to sharing their knowledge, gifts and talents by teaching a variety of interesting and meaningful classes each semester such as: math, science, literature, writing, art, cooking, Taekwondo, and more. Because our parents do all of our teaching, REACH Co-op is extremely affordable. Parents also assist the teachers in the classroom and they provide all the building preparation and clean up for our co-op on Fridays. REACH members make a year long teaching commitment to the other REACH families.
Nursery & Preschool
While our co-op is primarily focused on the Kindergarten - 12th grade we offer classes for younger siblings of REACH students.
2012-2013 Enrollment WE ARE CURRENTLY FULL
REACH is now accepting applications for the 2012-2013 school year. As we are a small co-op we cannot always accommodate every family who wishes to join our group. In reviewing applications for potential members we are particularly interested in knowing what classes you are willing to teach at REACH. This helps us evaluate what you will best be able to contribute to the group. This information, along with checking the references you provide, is a large part of our consideration of a new family. Links to our application forms and other documents can be found below.
