First Class Christian Co-op :: East Gresham, OR

East Gresham, OR

"This co-op was a breath of fresh air every Monday. I got encouragement from other moms. My daughter got to see her friends and make new friends. Monday School was a real lifesaver for us."

-Aleta

Online registration will begin at 9:00 Wednesday the 30^th. It will be open until 10:00 pm Thursday night (the 31^st). Please read ALL the instructions below before registering. We are super excited to get everyone registered start our spring term!

IF YOU HAVE KIDS GOING INTO THE AGE 3 PRESCHOOL CLASS, TODDLER CLASS OR INFANT CLASS: their classes are listed in a D block section under the other blocks on the registration screen.

A NEW CLASS HAS BEEN ADDED! J: In an effort to have enough classes to offer the kids, we have added an art class in block A for 1^st-12^th graders and an art class in block C for 1^st-6^th graders. These are hands-on classes. Peggy Gibson is creating the curriculum and we are currently looking for volunteers to teach these fun classes. It is unusual for us to offer classes like this at registration without a teacher so we are praying for God to fill the need. The catalog can be viewed on our website.
