Tapestry of Grace Calendar
Our history program is structured around the 36 week TOG program. We will provide each family with a weekly working calendar for use of the TOG program at home. The TOG curriculum is longer than our annual co-op term. Therefore, there will be some weeks that TOG is assigned for use at home, but co-op will not be in session and a few weeks that will be doubled in order to complete the curriculum.
Note Regarding Curriculum
We do our best to utilize the curriculum supported by the co-op to its fullest extent, however, due to the number of weeks in our operating calendar there may be some curriculum that needs to be completed outside of our operation schedule.
