CTK Homeschool Group is a community of Catholic families, faithful to the teaching our Holy Mother the Church. Their mission is to raise our children to fulfill their Baptismal promises, in love with The Truth, and possessing the virtues and knowledge needed to live and spread The Gospel in a fallen world. Currently offer two programs for academic enrichment and educational co-ops. Tuesday: Our partnership day with Oxford Virtual Academy (OVA) - Tuesday Program is a drop-off program with a wide range of elective classes where four classes may be for FREE for those who enroll as part time students with OVA (although people are always welcome to pay for the classes themselves and not enroll as part time students with OVA). Surveys are done each year to determine what the new classes will be based on the needs and desires of members. Tuesday classes are meant to complement and supplement our Thursday core classes, although members do NOT need to participate on Thursday in order to enroll on Tuesday. Tuesday elective partnership classes are open to everyone, regardless of race or religion. Currently, a small number of service jobs will be required of all members. Thursday: Our Classical, Catholic, Co-op Day - High School classes on Thursday focus on theology, history, literature, philosophy, art and music. Middle school classes prepare students for high school with excellent history and literature overview classes, as well as strong writing, logic and science courses. Elementary classes are supplemental to what homeschooling parents are doing at home which engages students at every level from 4-year-olds up through 6th grade. CCD and Atrium programs are available in the afternoon as part of the co-op.

The Chemical Educational Foundation created the You Be The Chemist Essential Elements program to provide K-8 educators nationwide with professional development to empower educators to teach science through hands-on activities and real-world applications. These professional development workshops are 100% funded by our sponsors and donors and are schedule at absolutely no cost to schools or educators. I am contacting you to see if you would be interested in bringing a FREE, hands-on science workshop to your organization. Essential Elements workshops provide educators with: • A CEF giveaway bag that includes a flash drive with 50+ Activity Guide experiments, which educators can bring right to their learners. The activities use household materials and are affordable, easy to do, and can be done in any space. All of our activities come with background information for the educator and editable student-facing documents. • A chance to see the 5E Instructional Model in action! This model, centered around student-driven inquiry, allows students to build their own understanding of new concepts from both old ideas and their own experiences. • Opportunity to collaborate with other educators to help plan their own 5E lessons using additional activities from the Activity Guides. I hope you consider this professional development opportunity for your organization. I can run a free workshop for a minimum of 6 people. If you are interested, please contact CEF on their website to discuss potential dates and times.
