The Mason Co-op is happy to announce their new location, beginning in the 2012-13 school year:
North Fairfield Baptist Church
6853 Gilmore Rd.
Hamilton Ohio 45011
www.northfairfield.com

For the first time in several years, we are seeking new members!

The new location is larger and will allow us to expand our ministry to the home educating community.
We will be continuing to meet on Fridays throughout the co-op year.

If you are interested in joining or learning more, please email our Director, Michelle Mauch at director@masoncoop.org

The cost is $125 per family for each semester. Some classes have additional fees to cover expenses. Classes are available from 1-12th grade, with a nursery and preschool for the littlest ones. Click HERE for news and information about registration dates and fees.

As this is a cooperative, the families are all expected to remain on site and to serve in the Co-op. Moms serve during two out of the three hours of the morning, and have one hour free to socialize and receive support in the “Chew ‘n Chat” room. Moms have the option to either assist the teacher in two classes, or to teach one class and assist in one class. Teachers receive a discount from their Co-op dues. Click HERE for specifics about the fee structure.  There are additional service opportunities such as field trip coordinator, hospitality coordinator, safety coordinator, and building liaison.

The Mason Co-op also has some specialized teachers who are paid directly by the families for their classes. These teachers are not parents of students in the Co-op, but are experts in their field. The Co-op does not handle any of the finances that relate to these classes and the class fees are above and beyond the Co-op dues.

In addition to this, moms who have students 7-12 grade, and no younger students in the Co-op, are permitted to pay an additional $65 “Drop-Off” fee per student per class (in addition to any other class/teacher fees required) and are not required to remain on the campus during the Co-op hours.
