CO-OP Mission Statement
In order to further equip parents, who are ultimately accountable for the instruction and training of their children, we seek to be a Christian homeschool cooperative which would endeavor:
For parents: To provide academic instruction which would enhance their effort as they fully accept the Biblical responsibility to "train up a child in the way he should go." (Proverbs 22:6)
For children: To provide excellent academic instruction from a Biblical Christian worldview. To inspire a love for learning; to equip them to think clearly, concisely, and critically with character reflecting that of our Lord, Jesus Christ. (I Cor. 8:1b)
H.E.I.G.H.T.S. Co-op - View Brochure
The H.E.I.G.H.T.S (Honesty, Excellence, Integrity, Goodness, Humility, Teamwork, and Self-control) co-op offers classes to supplement your home-school curriculum. Our emphasis is middle school and high school academics, but includes classes for younger children. Classes taught have included Apologia sciences, U.S. Constitution, church history, creative writing, etc. The co-op also produces a play each session.
We meet Tuesdays afternoons for two sessions, September-November and January-April at:
Family of Faith Church
6645 West Steger Road
Monee IL, 60449

Due to limited teacher/facility capacity, we accept those from Family of Faith Church first, and others on a first-come, first-serve basis. You may call the church to be put on a waiting list.
All parents are required to:
- fufill an assigned job and be available to help during an assigned back-up hour
- remain at the facility during your child's scheduled classes.
