 We are a Christian-based co-op that welcomes homeschoolers and cyber schoolers from a variety of faiths and backgrounds. Our classes are taught from a Christian worldview.
 

Q:

A:

LAF is a drop-off co-op for students 11 and older. However, if your student has a period free between classes a parent or other responsible adult is required to be on-site as we do not have study halls available. If your child is under 7 we prefer to have a parent or other responsible adult on-site at all times for safety reasons. There are multiple waiting areas for parents and siblings.

Q:

A:

No. Although Grace Fellowship graciously hosts our co-op we are not officially affiliated with Grace.

Q:

A:

 No. You can enroll your student in just one class or up to 6 (we have six class periods). We want you to do what is best for your child and your family.
 

Q:

A:

 Yes, we would love to have cyber schoolers join us.
