Watch for pages coming up soon with more information including...REACH High: That's right. Not only do we think the name is a fun play on words, we are excited to expand the offerings of REACH to help families meet their goals of high school credit classes for their students. In the past we have had a few classes with high school credit worthy texts and work available but now we are filling the schedule with dedicated high school classes. Watch for information soon about classes of World History, Literature, Finances, Economics, Speech, Government focusing on the US Constitution and local government in the spring, Advanced Writing (IEW) and Spanish. 

Our KinderPrep program (3's and 4's) will have some exciting changes as our wonderful teachers are working on a special game plan for them.
