Hello Ruth Ann,

This looks like an excellent proposal, and I know it is much needed. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me ([email protected]) or the school's division (502) 855-4824, if there's ever anything that we can do to assist!...

Hey Katie19, my name is Shane Saxon and I work with our start-up schools and Highlands Latin Cottage Schools, and my primary message for you is: you can do it! I'd love to talk to you about the details and answer your questions though. My email is [email protected], or call our schools division...

Hey Amanda!

You are not alone in these struggles! The HLS Mission statement starts with the words "In partnership with parents ..." and that has been such an important phrase for the full-time campus and all of our cottage schools. Great schools and co-ops rely on the involvement...

Hey Meg, great question. I'd always recommend approaching these kinds of situations on a case-by-case basis. A one-size-fits-all approach to financial aid limits your ability to serve your community effectively. At both Highlands Latin School and the MPOA, there is a general benefit offered to teachers...

Amen, Beorn! And I'm glad you were able to post Anna.M. I'd love to hear from any other individuals in Fredericksburg....

Hello Kristi B! As Beorn mentioned, I'd be more than happy to talk with you or your father about this new start-up. He can call me (502) 855-4824 or email me at [email protected]. I'll look forward to hearing from him!

Hey Kristi,

Sorry for the delay! We apparently suffered some technical disruptions that prevented us from being notified of new posts.

Regarding the specific question about whether HLS programs operate as for-profit or nonprofit, the answer is: it depends. There are good...

Hey Alice Burnette , I've enjoyed working with Elisabeth at HLS Anderson during my time at MP. It's exciting to hear you'll be taking some of that spirit to the Atlanta area. If you want your co-op to be represented on the MP Communities map, shoot me an email with the zip code and name (official, or...

Amanda U I always require that my students read the chapters before they come to class. I think that's the best practice at any age level. I frequently remind my students that one of the marks of great literature is that the more you read it, the more you can glean from it.

I wouldn't encourage...

pickandgrin Super helpful reply!

I'm teaching ninth grade literature this year, but we're covering the books in the tenth grade MP curriculum. It's been a really great year!

Hey Amanda, great questions. The set-up of our literature classes at the Louisville Cottage school will vary depending on the grade level. Regardless of the grade level, however, it's important that students are spending time reading the novel, poem, or plays aloud to the teacher and their peers. As...

Hello,
I don't see your email address anywhere, but I think you might be someone who I encouraged to post on the forum to see if there was any other interest from MP users in your community. If I'm mistaken, then I'd love to chat with you about your planning whenever it's convenient. You can...

I see! And I think only the teacher would be required to have it if they are drilling all of the facts in class, but parents might want to buy a copy to have it at home. Here's a link to the digital format of the Third Grade Recitation, for example.

[Shane S]

Hey Amanda, I don't exactly know what you mean by "cycle" style, but in the back of each of the curriculum manuals is a recitation for each grade level. The recitations correspond to the material covered throughout the year, but you wouldn't have to be doing the entire MP curriculum for the...

Hello, I believe that co-op is directed by Lisa Anstett. Her email address is [email protected]. I hope that helps!
