If you are a homeschooler and live in El Paso, TX then this post is for you. This fall we are starting up a new co-op at First Presbyterian Church. I love co-ops. They are a great way to supplement our curriculum, find classes on subjects where I struggle but the kids need, socialize our weird homeschoolers (hehe), go on field trips, and make a few friends myself.

I think homeschooling is fun and cool. Planning to homeschool my future kids.
Good luck to your activities.

Our family is looking at the possibility of relocating to El Paso from Tyler, Texas. We have homeschooled for 8 years, and just this year delved into the addition of a co-op to our education. I wondered if there are any other co-ops you can tell me about in El Paso? The co-op we are currently a part of is parent taught and provides for Kindergarten through 12th grade. We meet from 9am-3pm three Mondays a month. I love this parent taught method and am looking for something similar in El Paso. Some of the options I am looking for as far as classes include a progressive program for science, history, Texas history, government, and also include math, art, foreign language, computer and possibly some music and drama options. I would love any information you can give on other co-ops that are parent taught and provide some of the class options I’ve listed above. Thanks so much for your help!
The best way to stay connected to all that is going on in the El Paso homeschool community is to join the FB group El Paso Liberty Home Schoolers (https://www.facebook.com/groups/132206980133240/)
My favorite of course is the one that meets at First Prebyterian Church El Paso (fpcep.org)
I know there is a Fort Bliss Military Home Schoolers Co-op and I believe there is another one on the West Side of town but I do not know a whole lot about it other then I’ve heard lots of people like it
Thanks so much for your help!
Do you know who I can contact about the next opportunity to enroll in the Co-op? We only just began homeschooling and are eager to connect with other families and classes offered for students this fall. Thanks!
I am actually that person. However the best way to stay up to date is to sign up to receive the newsletter. The form is at the bottom of the page, http://www.fpcep.org/homeschool-co-op/
All announcements, outside of the ones made to those in the co-op already, are made there first.
