Okay...I am officially trying to not be as nervous as I feel right now - our grade school is closing (though the preschool is still strong) and I have suddenly ended up in the very center of organizing and launching a homeschool cooperative for the families cast adrift. I have the blessing of the hosting church to have it there in the same classrooms with the same curriculum and everything a co-op could dream of as they still want a school they just can't afford to pay teachers. The parents take turns teaching or hiring tutors/instructors for special classes and the kids all still get to see each other and stick with familiar stuff. It looks good, but I have *NO* experience in being an administrator or teacher - and I'm presenting all of this to two parent meetings in about an hour.

Yikes. Am I insane or what? In the past four days I've found supporters, got permission, designed a registration form, an overview and flyers, put up a website and email contact point and designed web banners. It's been nuts! We'll see what their response is... if they come alongside me, it's a go. If not, then I continue on homeschooling in a more standard fashion I guess. *closes eyes and leaps*
