Our Memberships

Our Co-Op has several membership options available. Click below on the name of each membership to learn more about each option, to see pricing for our different memberships, and to see the schedule of events that each type of member has access to. Each of our memberships run from August through May and dates and times of meetings/activities vary by membership. All of the Valley Co-Op memberships are private pay only (you are unable to use state funding) and cost for membership is on each individual membership page. Both the schedule and the cost per membership is subject to change, but you will be informed prior to any changes being made.

All students and parents, regardless of the membership they select, are required to follow our Student Code of Conduct and our Adult Code of Conduct, respectively. Please be sure to click on the above links and review them BEFORE enrolling in a Valley Co-Op membership. The Valley Co-Op also strongly encourages for older students to take on the responsibility to be a good influence on the younger students by being a BIG mentor. Our BIG/little info sheet is HERE--older students are given this sheet at the Co-Op Kickoff (August), but we encourage all parents to look over the BIG/little info sheet so that they can know what their students can expect from the mentor program and what boundaries should not be crossed.

Registration for this fall is full! Please feel free to email morgan@homeschoolinthevalley.com to be put on our waitlist.
