Coastal Oaks Co-op

Our middle schoolers have something increasingly rare: an education that isn’t dominated by screens, Ed Tech, and digital stimulation.

A recent review of 63 studies involving young people ages 11–26 found that connection with nature was associated with greater well-being and lower stress, anxiety, and other mental health symptoms. Nature can help restore attention, calm the nervous system, and foster connection.

In a world of increasing digital overload, we believe giving kids space to unplug, breathe, connect, and experience the natural world is something worth protecting. 🌱

🌿 Intentionally growing our homeschool community.

We meet 3 days a week, screen-free, and value academics, time outdoors, creativity, character, strong relationships, and community.

Pre-K–Middle School | 1, 2, or 3 days/week | A la carte enrichment

🔸Meet & Greet: Sept. 3
📚 Classes begin: Sept. 8

We’re less interested in being the biggest co-op and more interested in finding the right families who share our values.

If this sounds like your family, send us a message. 🤍

Kindergarten should still feel like childhood. 🌿

In our mixed-age Kindergarten/ Early Childhood program, we take a slower, more joyful approach—one that honors the whole child rather than rushing children into first-grade academics before they’re ready.

Instead of endless worksheets and academic pressure, our days are filled with play, stories, music, movement, and time outdoors in nature. 🌱 We are screen-free, hands-on, and deeply rooted in the belief that children learn beautifully through play and meaningful experiences.

There is time to wonder. Time to imagine. Time to move. Time to be a child.

Because childhood is not something to rush through. It is the foundation. ❤️

🧶Fiber arts invite children to slow down, focus, and discover the joy of creating something with their own hands. Our classes introduce students to weaving, embroidery, hand sewing, felting, knitting, and crocheting.

As therapeutic knitting researcher Betsan Corkhill explains, “Repetitive, rhythmic movements have long been associated with a calming effect on the brain.” These purposeful activities also strengthen fine motor coordination, visual-motor integration, and sustained attention—foundational skills that support handwriting, reading, math, and lifelong learning.

Join us this September as we create, learn, and grow together! 🧵
