- Offering classes that parents have said they want in greater numbers?
- Offering a class/activity that works well within the schools curriculum (i.e. offering music since there won't be separate music instruction next year at PF)?
- Offering classes that match the school's mission? (e.g. Native studies, whole-child education)
- Offering classes that individuals really want and are able to commit to doing the hard work to make them happen?

What classes would you like to see?
When we decide what classes we are going to offer, especially at first, we need to take into account lots of things. What are the most important considerations? Which are less important?

I think we should offer classes that parents say they are interested in and that we can find energized people to organize and lead.
order of importance is
1. popular demand
2. available support
3. support the school mission - because hopefully this would be the same as popular demand!
4. support the curriculum
