Jess Alfreds - Carolina Kids Co-Op 

Carolina Kids Co-op is a micro school network with various locations in several states. Founded by Jess Alfreds in 2022 in Myrtle Beach, SC, CKC is an academic, (mostly) outdoor, inclusive, secular, hybrid (homeschool) educational program. CKC focuses on holistic education, meaning we prioritize emotional health and well-being as well as academic rigor. For our students, we strive to help them find their love of learning, community and path to success. For those who want to build their own community, we offer support (enrollment, curriculum, legal, operational, etc.), guidance, coaching and community. We strive to be a resource for anyone who believes in the importance of education, emotional and physical health, through community and cooperation.
