NEWARK, Ohio ( WCMH ) – Conrad Elementary School closed years ago, but every Thursday, hundreds of students cycle through its halls. The building's lilac walls are lined with cork boards and decorations, religious posters and world maps, children's paintings and Dr. Seuss quotes. In the gym, elementary and middle school children play with hula hoops while a kindergarten-age karate class commands the elevated stage. The Excellence in Learning Community Co-op may rent out a school building once a week, but it is not a school; it's a cooperative of parents who home-school their children.
