We've homeschooled for 20+ years. The co-ops we've been a part of over the years are like these. But creating a 'formal educational environment' still doesn't make it a licensed or certified 'school'. No different than taking a course online.jordanmills wrote: ↑Thu Dec 20, 2018 1:03 amDepends on what the coop does. Some are glorified social clubs.

I don’t see how these gatherings could possibly be viewed as a school sponsored activity when Co-ops are little more than social clubs.
