DiscoverINg America’s God-Given Freedom

Go back in America’s History to discover what led to the founding of the greatest and longest lasting government of all time.  Learn what led and directed the pilgrims, pioneers and founding fathers.  Find out how bold preachers and the Bible were used in awakening the understanding for our freedoms and founding documents.  Students and families will explore the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the pledge of Allegiance, American Songs and heroes that risked their lives for the sake of our God-Given Freedoms.  Your children will be inspired to discover God’s leading and direction in their own lives and the importance of their freedoms in America, but most importantly, their freedoms in Christ.

This class takes monthly field trips to local areas for enrichment purposes.  There may be a small fee for some of these fieldtrip locations, which we will inform you of before the trip, but we will try to keep costs at a minimum.  Parents are required to attend the field trips.

Topics Covered

Pilgrims & Pioneers | Christopher Columbus | Jamestown & Plymouth | America’s Covenant to God | Robert Huss | Native American Indians | The Thirteen Colonies | The Great Awakening | American Revivalists and Pastors who Shaped the Nation | Declaration of Independence | The Sacrifices of Freedom | Revolutionary War | Branches of Government | Founding Fathers | Christian Inventors | Slavery | The Bible’s Influence on America’s Founding Fathers and its Documents | Continuing the Cry and Fight for Freedom | And More….

Lunch Time

Whether your family is staying at the Co-op for half a day or a whole day, you are more than welcome to eat at the facility together with other homeschool/co-op families.  Bring your own food.

Reading and Math Reinforcements

Reading, Writing and Arithmetic.  Along with the Word of God, these are foundational pillars for education.  In this class, kids will develop their reading and math skills by proven methods, all while having fun and playing games with their friends.  Teachers will use Rocket Phonics that incorporates Aesop’s Fables and Bible Stories into the program to instill good morals and values within your children.  Math games and songs to will strengthen what children are learning at home in order to give them a strong foundation and love for learning.

Victory’s Co-op is a supplemental educational opportunity for families. Families are welcome to participate at whatever level works best for their family. There are no attendance requirements or required homework. There are no letter grades or performance evaluations from our teachers.  All assignments are optional and can be done at the discretion of each individual family.

Parent Involvement

Victory’s Co-op is a cooperative learning opportunity that requires parents of all students (or a family guardian) to remain on campus throughout the Co-op program and serve in their assigned volunteer positions. At least one parent or family guardian from each family enrolled in the Co-op is required to remain on campus serving in their assigned area during the entire Co-op.  One Co-op parent cannot be the family guardian of another Co-op family.  Each family unit must have a person who volunteers for their family and who is responsible for the discipline and well-being of the child(ren) as needed.  Please contact our team leadership for any questions.

Since Victory’s Co-op is a cooperative learning community, we will ask that each student bring in one item that the Co-op will need for functioning throughout the year, such as a box of tissues, hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes, paper, crayons, etc. twice a year.  More details will be provided for you once registered.

Once registered, Victory will send you an email with orientation information as well as all other forms for each family to fill out.  These forms will include:

• Family Consent and Activity Release Form • Family Emergency Information Form • Hold Harmless Agreement • Volunteer Form • Family Guardian Form (if applicable)

Please have these forms filled out, along with payment in full ready, before you arrive on the first day of classes.  If you would like to pay before the first day of classes, please contact the Bookkeeping Department.

All families who register for Victory’s Co-op will be interviewed before the family is allowed to participate in any classes.  This interview process is to make sure your family is a good fit for Victory’s Co-op and the Co-op is a good fit for your family.  We always like to get to know the families before they become a part of Victory’s Co-op community and answer any questions either party may have.

By registering you are agreeing to an interview process.  Please note that submission is not a guarantee of enrollment.
