COGCA educators also offer fun life skill development "enrichment" classes, determined by our learners' collective requests and customized to meet our educators' talents and hobbies, such as but not limited to gardening, wood working, theater, dance, martial arts, mechanics, and the like. Each child attends COGCA with a subject-based textbook or workbook matched to their peers for educator-led group learning with the option for an additional individualized homeschool curriculum scaled to his/her level and ability.
