“My kids have learned so much at KOCO. In addition to basics such as following directions, showing respect for others, taking turns, cooperation and courtesy, the interesting, educational and fun themes, topics and activities have helped expose them to ideas and experiences that I might not have been able to on my own.” KOCO Parent
