When does Explorers meet?
Explorers meets on Tuesdays for two twelve-week semesters. Our fall semester begins in mid-September, and runs through the first Tuesday in December. Our spring semester begins the first Tuesday in February, and runs through the first Tuesday in May, with two weeks off as spring break.
Students of all ages meet from 10am until 12 noon. During this time, each student has the opportunity to participate in two one-hour classes: one from 10a-11a, and one from 11a-12 noon. At 12 noon, all students below grade 6 head home, while students from grades 6-12 may continue with three more one hour classes through 4 pm.
We also have a professional class hour from 9a-10a. During this hour, Explorers brings in teachers usually from outside the co-op to teach classes that you might otherwise take in the community.
