Our History |
The Team
We met when we happened to be on a middle school team together- he taught social studies, she taught science. Together we have three kids. The oldest is 9 and loving elementary school. The middle is 7 and learning the basics of reading.The youngest is almost 1 and just learning to walk. Together we have a passion for learning and love anything that involves education (we've been to a million zoos, aquariums, etc.)! |
