FAQs
Is Wellspring a Christian co-op?
Yes. Wellspring is dedicated to bringing Biblical truth to our children through classical education. Wellspring desires all methods and manners to be simple, clear, and purposefully pointed toward glorifying God. We aim to point to Jesus in each of our lessons.
Are you more of a playgroup or an academic-focused co-op?
We’re a blend of both! While we provide academic enrichment, we also organize field trips, mom nights, holiday parties, and various engaging events throughout the year to build a strong sense of community amongst Wellspring families.
Can I drop my children off?
No, all students need a parent/guardian present on campus. Parents help out in assigned areas, fostering relationships and ensuring the program runs smoothly.
