Cooperative School at Northland:

You’ve probably spent a lot of time wondering what the right fit looks like for your family.

We get it. We’ve been there.

In fact, when we couldn’t find it … we created it.

For more than three decades, families and teachers here have worked side by side to help children grow in heart, mind and character. We started with Preschool, grew into Kindergarten and Grade School, and we’re adding 4th grade in 2027–28!

Already part of the Cooperative Crew? Welcome back! Re-enrollment starts right here, too.

Our philosophy hasn’t changed

“Children learn best when families, teachers and community are genuinely connected.”
