What are you gonna do about socialization? You know the question. And you may have some cliches to answer. But, just between us–we have to acknowledge socialization is harder when we are homeschooling.
The struggle is real:
Finding interesting activities, kids that your kids like, and moms that you like. Plus coordinating schedules and paying for the fees. Then, what happens when conflicts arise or your friends move away?
Finding a group makes you feel like you’re Goldilocks. This one’s too big; that one’s too small. Or too quiet or too loud. Or too far away or too expensive. You can’t find one that fits just right.
Cola City PLUS strives to build community where we can grow and thrive. We aren’t offering a polished menu of opportunities and a set schedule (yet). We’re inviting you to catch the vision for a new kind of collaboration. A place where you belong.
- We’re committed to creating an environment that celebrates a variety of unique perspectives. backgrounds, and identities of all people, embracing diversity as a cornerstone of our success.
- We strive to cultivate an atmosphere of belonging, where everyone has equitable opportunities to thrive, contribute, and reach their full potential.
- We are championing inclusivity and affirming the dignity of every person.
- We aim to inspire positive change and build a brighter, more harmonious future for all.
It starts with a mindshift around our shared values, diverse perspectives and mutual respect. This requires active participation for self-reflection, willingness to learn and grow. We’re learning together.
PLUS: Parents + Learning…that’s US! Monthly reading challenge and discussion themes serve as the basis for collaborative efforts. Weekly emails and online discussion forums make it easy to access at your convenience.
Do Less–Get More: Ideas & Brainstorming. If we all contribute a little bit, we’ll get more out of it–without getting burned out. Regularly scheduled zoom sessions to facilitate planning, team building and practical implementation. Do your kids have ideas too? We want to give them agency to bring those ideas to life.
Conflict Resolution: Where two or three are gathered, there will be conflict. So, we aren’t surprised when it occurs within our community. But, we’re committed to working thru our differences and repairing relationships with each other.
