Looking for a Christian Based Co-Op/School

I haven't heard very many good things about Eagle's Aire (I live right by it). They don't focus on math at all. I heard the kids have to do it on their own, and math is an important thing to understand and can be very frustrating if the child doesn't get a good foundation in it. Also, the founder of Eagle's Aire used to be a teacher/administrator at the charter high school I graduated from and he had a falling out with the principle and left to form his own school, Eagle's Aire. He was a nice guy, but odd. I would go check out the school with scrutinizing eyes.

You might check out www.greatschools.net. You can read parents comments, see test scores, etc. I've found it very helpful when researching schools.

Just wanted to say I'll be checking back to hopefully see the answers! I'm interested in the same information, though I've never heard of it. Can you tell me what a co-op school is? ____@____.com

Hello, If you are new to the area, another great place to get connected is through HERO. It is a homeschool newsletter that goes out to about 1500 homeschooling families in the Phoenix valley. It would also be a great place to post this question. The website to get signed up is www.happilyeducatingourown.org Welcome to Arizona!!

If you have any other questions about getting connected we are in a Christian support group (EVCHE) and also in a PE coop that meets twice a week. ____@____.com

There is also Crossroads Nazarene Church they have a home schooling network. I knew a friend years ago that took their kids there and were happy. I don't know much about it anymore. They are in the Price /Ray area I believe. You may want to check them out too.
Here is their website, though they might be a drive from you.

We took "Growing Kids" We loved it, but remember to consider circumstances. I think sometimes being a growing kid parent it's almost like we would demand respect and that pushed them farther away. We can do it in love but sometimes it's easy to get carried away with listening the first time and we can easily forget to get to the root of why they are misbehaving or not respecting (usually because of a hurt or a bad day, but if we are not listening it's easy to miss (just sharing a little of my experience). I think I needed to listen more and demand respect less. It's a great program if used properly.

Hope that helps.

FYI.. I'm pretty sure that Eagles Aerie is a 'mormon' school. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but just thought you'd want t know.

My friends husband teaches at Eagles Aire School in Gilbert and they send their children there as well. I have heard that it is an awesome school, and they do a lot of wonderful extra curricular activities. IF it were closer to me I would consider sending my children there.
