Reach has allowed my kids to have a normal school experience and to make friends. They’ve participated in numerous fieldtrips to places like Luray Caverns, Leesburg Zoo, STEM classes; various clubs like GenerationOn & Beta; and they’ve attended dances, parades, been part of radio commercials, given back to the community, met with a wide variety of speakers, and enjoyed the many seasonal parties and gatherings/playdates sponsored by Reach. Of nine kids, I have already had the joy of watching two graduate high school with Reach; we’ve even participated in PreK/Kindergarten graduations with our kids.

There’s a wide variety of families in Reach, from all parts of Virginia. Some lead in classes or clubs, others offer their help, and all are willing to share their experience and learn from others how best to educate tomorrow’s leaders. I feel blessed to be part of the Reach family because I am not alone, I have a reliable network of people to talk to and guide me, and I can also be a mentor when necessary.

I’ve been with Reach too long to remember. Until I had joined, I felt lost and unsure in my ability to teach my children and in how I was supposed to begin. Reach gave me the boost I needed. I intend to remain with Reach until after the last child graduates high school. I am thankful for Wanda‘a dedication to homeschooling and for getting everything together smoothly. I’ve appreciated every opportunity and learned so much. I can’t think of a better group to join as a homeschooler!
