HomeschoolGo
Homeschool Co-op Companion
Free
HomeschoolGo is the mobile companion to your co-op's HomeschoolGo account — built for the parents, teachers, and admins who keep a homeschool co-op running day to day.
Your co-op already uses HomeschoolGo on the web to manage classes, billing, and communication. This app puts the parts you need most in your pocket.

Our co-op is so excited to have found this app and begin implementing it! It will be convenient to have everything in one place. Plus, it will make the jobs of our leadership team much easier.

Fixes an issue where children's names could appear blank in the Directory, search results and event sign-ups. Also makes long recipient lists easier to work with when writing a message.
1.11.1 2d ago
What's new:
• Messages: see who reacted to a message, and pin or mute a conversation from your inbox.

• Assignments: families and students can see a teacher's feedback note on their work.
• Students: if your co-op turns on student messaging, students can read and reply to messages from their teachers.
• Phone numbers show in one consistent format.
• Classes that meet every other week show on the right weeks.
• Home is simpler: the unread-messages card and the profile banner are gone, since the Messages badge and the Get started checklist already cover them.

• The app opens more reliably when you're offline.
• Fixes and improvements.
1.11.0 4d ago
What's new:
• Messages: react to a message with a long-press, see when someone is typing, and see @mentions as names. You can now attach photos and files when you start a new message.
• Forum: discussions are grouped into sections, with unread counts.
• Welcome: families who join from their invite email get a short welcome in the app to check their details and add their children.
• Text messages: your family's primary contact can turn on texts from your co-op in Settings > Edit Profile.
• Home: the top of Home shows only what needs your attention now.
• Teachers: if your co-op uses substitutes, request a sub for a class day, and families see who is subbing. Parents who also teach can see their teaching schedule on Schedule.
• Event details opened from Home now show the full description, fee and signup information.
• The app icon badge clears when you open the app.
• Fixes and improvements.
1.10.2 5d ago
• Text throughout the app now follows your iPhone's text size setting.
• Sign in faster: with a passkey (manage them in Settings), or with the code from your sign-in email.
• Report a child's absence from Schedule, and teachers see who's out on Attendance (where your co-op uses absence notices).
• My Family: more child details and your co-op's questions, authorized pickup contacts, and household invites you can send or accept.
• Teachers: see past class email updates and send one update to several sections.
• Subscribe to your co-op's calendar, and see cancelled events clearly marked.
• Attendance and Class Roster work offline, and Messages update as new messages arrive.
• Refreshed class, volunteer and payment screens, plus many fixes.
1.9.1 Oct 18
• A cleaner look: new icons in the tab bar and menu, and your co-op's color now highlights what's selected instead of every button.
• Calendar: drag, swipe or tap the handle under the month to switch between month and week.
• Class assistants now see the classes they help with under Teaching, including attendance.
• Class catalog: a clearer Enroll button, and if your co-op doesn't allow overlapping classes, students who already have a class at that time are marked.
• Your calendar no longer shows classes on your co-op's days off.
• Fixes: dates of birth in My Family, dates on student announcements, tidier previews, "now" on a message you just sent, and several iPad fixes.

you picked.

the co-op you're currently in.

- Class messages for students now look and feel like a real conversation, with a quick-access icon and unread badge right on the Today tab.

- Various reliability and bug fixes.
1.2.12 Sep 15
Students can now post and reply in class forums, and see all their notifications in one place. Fixed a bug where forum messages wouldn't load.
