PACE = P arents A ctive in C ooperative E ducation

We are a community of children, teachers, and parents active in cooperative education who strive to enrich and deepen learning, independence, and leadership.  We value respect, compassion, and responsibility in building our community of lifelong learners.

Overview of PACE

PACE's focus is to create a partnership of teachers, children and parents committed to an enriched learning environment. Its key elements include:

  • Enrichment activities and active parent participation support each student's learning style and developmental rate.
  • Students are encouraged to be independent and self-motivated learners.
  • The program provides interaction with students of all grade levels within the program.
  • PACE students participate in P.E., library, and music instruction as well as all school-wide assemblies and after-school activities.
  • PACE families must contribute a minimum of 80 hours of volunteer work per year to support the program. Work may be either in the classroom or outside the classroom, based on parent's availability and interest.
  • Consistent parental involvement in the classroom allows for small group, cooperative work plus traditional large group instruction.
  • All PACE programs meet the curriculum requirements of the Northshore School District.
  • PACE is a supportive community for children and their families.
