When your child joins The Circle School, your family becomes a member of our Family Cooperative. The Family Cooperative controls all aspects of the school, including teacher hiring, administration, after-school care, and maintenance of the building and grounds.

The Family Cooperative system enables us to provide our unique features -- small class size, a nurturing environment, and enriched curriculum -- at a very reasonable cost.

Other benefits of the Family Cooperative:

Our children see their parents supporting their education. This shows them by example that we value education.

Because we work together, we know our teachers, families, and students. There are no strangers here -- how many people can say that about their school?

Our children see how people working together can make great things happen.

Parents who participate actively in the Cooperative waive monthly co-operative fees.
