Registration Fee

Co-op remains open for all North Country homeschooling families to join, however, this year we will be charging a $25 registration fee per family. This fee will cover each attending family’s portion of the co-op’s newly purchased insurance policy, an annual donation to the Cadyville Wesleyan Church (which let’s us use it’s building for free), and any other supplies the group needs (shelving, art supplies, etc).

** A registration table will be set up next to the sign-in table throughout the year. Please take a moment to fill out our short registration form, and place it, along with your $25 fee, in the drop box provided. PLEASE BRING EXACT CHANGE, co-op does not have a checking account and cannot cash checks. Cash only please!

** We want co-op to remain an affordable, fun option for any member of the community who wants to participate! If you have difficulty paying the $25 registration fee please contact Holly Warren to make alternative payment arrangements.

Volunteer Requirements

Additionally, each family registering will be expected to volunteer three times each school year. Volunteering can take many forms -- teaching a class solo, team teaching a class with another co-op family, bringing in an outside teacher, or holding a staff position are all examples of ways to contribute.

Please speak with Holly Warren or Amanda Bokus if you need ideas for getting involved!

** New families are able, and encouraged, to come to co-op 1-2 times prior to registering to make sure the group is a good fit for your family. Once registered, new families have a one semester “grace period” before volunteer requirements begin so they have time to make friends & see how co-op runs.

Class Fees

Fees for individual classes will still be paid weekly to cover the teacher’s cost for materials. Fees will continue to be collected using the honor system at the sign-in table each class day. When you sign-in, please be sure to check to see if the classes your child is attending that day have fees, and if so, please put payment in the appropriate envelope.

As class fees are generally very modest, it is best if families can bring $1's and $5's when paying for classes.

Fees will continue to be announced in the class descriptions so families can make sure they have the correct change.

Please make sure to check the announcements for any classes your children are attending to see if there is a fee or other item that should be brought in order for them to participate.

Attendance Policy

Families are welcome to come to as many or as few classes as their schedules & interests allow.

We meet at regular times though, so that families can easily schedule other classes and commitments around co-op without conflicts.

Please note the RSVP policy for each class your family is interested in & contact the appropriate person via email or phone.

Due to the growth co-op has experienced in the past year, as well as how many students can comfortably fit in our classrooms, many classes this year will have limited class sizes ranging from 8-20 students per class. Classes posted with an enrollment limit will fill on a first come, first serve basis. Please make sure to RSVP to the teacher so your child’s spot is held!

General Rules

1) Parents, please do not drop off your child. Co-op is NOT a drop-off activity. Parents are expected to be on the premises at all times. Drop-offs may occasionally be allowed on a case by case basis for children 7+, with prior permission from the instructor and/or one of the co-op coordinators.

2) Please no candy treats as prizes in class. In order to be mindful of food allergies, encourage a healthy lifestyle, and mindful of everyone's various food preferences we are asking that candy not NOT be given by teachers as rewards in class. Families are certainly welcome to pack whatever they would like for their own children to eat during the bag lunch/recess period, but for prizes please consider stickers or other small tokens.

National History Day Competition (Grade 6-12)

Greetings from Fort Ticonderoga!

I hope the new school year is off to a good start for you and your students!

I wanted to touch base early in the school year and let you know about this year’s North Country History Day.

Two new counties have been added to the North Country Region: Hamilton County and St. Lawrence County.

THIS YEAR’S THEME: Exploration, Encounter, Exchange in History

The 2016 theme books, theme sheet, and sample topics are all available on the Fort Ticonderoga website at:

http://www.fortticonderoga.org/education/students/historyday

THIS YEAR’S CONTEST

This year’s North Country History Day Contest takes place on Saturday, March 6, 2016. Registration for all entries will be due by February 4, 2016. The registration fee remains at $10 per student, which will be due with submitted registrations.

SUPPORT FROM THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR

I am always happy to provide advice and answer questions about History Day. I’m available to meet with administrators, teachers, and/or students. Please let me know if you’d like to schedule a visit to your school,

PLANNING AHEAD

History Day is not a day, it’s an experience. As veterans, you know that History Day projects don’t just happen. Now is the time to plant the seed. Projects should be well underway by late October. I’ve found the “After School Club Kit” from New York State History Day to be a great way to organize the History Day program in your school—even if you don’t do it as an after school club. Here’s the link:

Stage Director: Kim Hartshorn Music Director: Timothy Morningstar

Wednesday, 9:30 am, November 4, 2015

Set in a Western Indian Territory just after the turn of the century, the high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colorful background against which Curly, a handsome cowboy, and Laurey, a winsome farm girl, play out their love story. Although the road to true love never runs smooth, with these two headstrong romantics holding the reins, love's journey is as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road.

This is also our opening performance. This special show is scheduled for Wednesday, November 4, 2015 at 9:30 a.m. in Hartman Theatre, located in the Myers Fine Arts building on campus. Please allow 2 1/2 hours. Tickets are discounted to $3 each for both students and chaperones. We expect a large turnout, so do not hesitate in making your reservations.

If you wish to extend your visit on the day of the performance, we can arrange for any of the following opportunities for your group: a "talk-back" with the cast and directors after the show, a backstage tour, and/or a tour of the college with a staff member from the Admissions Department. Please let us know as soon as possible as we will need advance notice to facilitate this for you.

If you are planning to attend the matinee, we encourage you to reserve your tickets as early as possible due to high demand. Please call our office at (518) 564-2243 to make a group reservation and take advantage of discount pricing.

Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you.

Project Summary

Local students will work closely with Jan McCormick, Museum Curator and Educator for the Samuel de Champlain History Center and Andrew Black, SUNY Plattsburgh Adjunct Professor and professional Archeaologist; The students will spend a day working an actual historic dig site, learn to research and interpret the artifacts, and finally learn how to put the story together. Local students will work closely with SUNY students as mentors at the dig site and researching artifacts at the Plattsburgh SUNY lab. This historic site is located on Mr. Black’s property and dates around the 1800s, when an increased wave of immigrants arrived as families from New England and further south in New York State moved in to build new lives and new opportunities on old Canadian Refugee land tracts of Champlain Valley. Many of these early settlers bought land and sought to establish small family farms in what was then still wilderness. The most valuable lots, of course, were ones next to the major water sources (such as the Great Chazy River or Lake Champlain). This site offers a rare opportunity for students to understand how the Champlain Valley was settled.

Jan McCormick, will assist teaching local students how to research and interpret the artifacts at the Plattsburgh SUNY Lab, as well as how to create an exhibit and interpretive panels from the information and artifacts discovered at the dig site. The exhibit will be duplicated for the Samuel de Champlain History Center and the Anthropology department at SUNY, Plattsburgh. An educational brochure will also be produced for visitors at the Samuel de Champlain History Center and SUNY Plattsburgh.

Music Lessons Being Offered

Hello,

My name is Nicole Moody. I grew up homeschooling (K-12) in the beautiful Adirondacks of NY. I began studying music at a young age and went on to pursue my degree in cello performance at Drake University. I am moving back to the Adirondack area and am available to teach music lessons to all ages!

I offer lessons on the cello, violin, recorders (sopranino, soprano, alto, tenor and bass), as well as piano (beginner). I am available to put together lessons (for groups or individual) in theory and music history. I know growing up in upstate NY as a homeschooling family, my parents counted on opportunities like this to supplement our education and interests.
