Our Mission Statement
 
Compass Rose Homeschool Co-Op is dedicated to being a guiding point for families navigating the dynamic homeschooling landscape based in Chattanooga, TN.   

We believe in providing a supportive and collaborative environment where homeschooling families can come together to share resources, ideas, and experiences. Our approach is centered around fostering a sense of community and belonging while offering a rich and diverse learning experience for our children.

About Us

Our Approach

 At Compass Rose we are a parent-led group whose main mission is to empower parents, lead students, and emphasize cooperative and interactive learning.  We are a supplemental co-op, meaning our classes are meant to compliment your already selected curriculum your student is doing at home or elsewhere. We strive to encourage you along your homeschooling path, and truly help your children connect and learn in a healthy, meaningful environment. No matter where you’re at in your homeschooling journey, brand new or a seasoned vet, we firmly believe you are doing an amazing job! As a homeschooling co-op we want to partner with you to help ensure your child is learning in different styles, engaging with other students, and enjoying themselves! 

What are your safety and

security protocols?

Safety and security are of the utmost importance to us. We require all adults to be background checked by the state of Tennessee. We also make a point to carry all necessary insurance, and remain in good standing with our insurance company.

Liability waivers and photo releases are required to be signed by all participating families. Our photo policy ensures that no photos go onto any social media platform, unless you are posting photos of your own children with no others present in the background.

What curriculum do you utilize?

We will be utilizing the "Gather Round Homeschool" Curriculum. We will begin our morning class with a science-based study and related activity. Our secondary class is humanities. As we get closer to the start of the school year, we will be announcing which classes specifically we will be teaching. Students will be provided with a workbook and supply box containing all materials needed. The cost of these supplies will be included in your enrollment fee and will be thoroughly explained to you!

When do we meet?

 We will be meeting one day a week 9:45am-2:15pm.

We will follow Hamilton County school’s calendar. Therefore, any holidays, breaks, or major weather closures will be following their schedule. We will operate the Fall semester and  Spring semester with exact dates to soon be provided.

What does parent-led mean?

Being a parent-led co-op means we are utilizing the parents involved to teach the classes, as parental involvement is required. We are here to guide you all along the way and utilize an amazing curriculum as our backbone to assist.

What is our

Daily Schedule?

We meet one day a week from 9:45am- 2:15pm. Parents must remain on campus at all times with their respective children.  Lunchtime is a time for us all to enjoy and associate so we encourage all to bring a lunch!

What is our refund policy?

Full refunds can be requested via email within 24 hours of purchase of your enrollment. Due to the personalized nature of the required items (printed curriculum workbooks, supplies, etc.) and the limited availability of space we are unable to offer refunds after this period. There are no exceptions to this rule. If you determine that Compass Rose Homeschool Co-op is not suitable for your family following enrollment, you must send a written email to withdraw from classes to compassrosehomeschoolcoop@gmail.com. This ensures we maintain accurate records for informing teachers and the host location about attendance changes.
