LIGHT IGNITE EDUCATIONAL CO-OPERATIVE

Welcome to the Light Ignite Educational Cooperative Organization (LIECO), a Christ-centered community dedicated to supporting families in the coastal region of Mendocino County. As we embark on our second year, we are blessed to continue our partnership with Calvary Baptist Church, whose generosity allows us to offer a variety of educational and enrichment classes in a safe and loving environment at their Chestnut Street location. At LIECO, we are committed to enriching your homeschooling and after-school experience by fostering a wholesome environment where children can learn, grow, and build lasting friendships. Our co-op thrives on the collective efforts of our members, and we encourage each family to prayerfully consider how LIECO can be a valuable addition to your educational journey.
 
LIECO is not just an educational group; it's a community where we co-labor with each other and with God to achieve excellence. Our weekly meetings provide a structured schedule that includes literature, music, prayer, and fellowship, all designed to strengthen Christian families and create precious memories. Whether you are homeschooling or seeking after-school enrichment for your children, LIECO offers a unique opportunity to engage in quality educational experiences while living out our shared faith. We invite you to explore whether LIECO is the right fit for your family and to join us in this journey of faith, learning, and community.
   
We currently meet Wednesdays from September to May from 11:30 am to 3:00 pm on the Calvary Baptist Church campus, as well as periodically throughout the summer.  We break the year up into 5 six week thematic units. 
 
Morning Session:
The morning session from 11:30-12:30 is Literacy Hour, which includes stories and age appropriate literacy activites for younger students and a book club for junior high and high school.  This generally serves our homeschool families. 
 
Afternoon Session:
The afternoon session is from 1:20p to 3:00p and consists of a group assembly, where we do a music acitvity and learn about our session topic.  Then we break into rotating groups based on age and each week do an activity related to the theme which may include:  art, poetry, STEM, cooking, performing art, or physical activity.  For more information, please email us at lightignitecoop@gmail.com.
