Dinosaur Community Charter Learning Center

Dinosaur Community Charter Learning Center, located in the small town 90 miles west of Craig, split from Moffat County School District this year to join forces with Hope Co-Op Online Learning Academy.

The K-12 school has 25 students in two classrooms, supervised by two mentors and one teacher/site coordinator, who visits the school weekly from Denver.

The students complete online lessons and assignments and take tests. They type essays and watch science experiments on their computers.

Mentors and teachers can track students' progress and reassign lessons if more help is needed. Mentors and teachers can advance students to the next grade level once they are competent in the grade's topics and pass related tests.

Parents can also access educational information at home to track their children's progress.

Carmen McKay is lead mentor at the school.
