Grace Co-op was unable to continue to meet in the form that it had been in last year, pre-COVID. We decided to open up our backyard for Chemistry Lab for Garrett and his peers (Will, Claire, Elizabeth, Ellie, Hannah, Courtney, and Grace) and Integrated Chemistry and Physics Lab for Bryce and Griffin and their peers (Jeremiah, Alex, Josiah, Naveyah, Isabella). Masks required. Joy made a virtual option available as well which is being taken advantage of by Grace in Castro Valley and any of the kids who were not able to attend in person for whatever reason. There are about 8 kids in each class. Little did we know that air quality would come into play as the California fires continued to burn during the start of school.
