Scarlett Payne is a 3rd grade student currently enrolled in Springs’ Venture Online program. She attended a traditional school for 2nd grade but opted for Homeschool, she said, because “I really love homeschooling and how my mom plans field trips for us to go on. So far I’ve been to a bee farm, I learned to process a chicken (farm to table) and have gone to the La Brea Tar Pits, my favorite field trip so far.”
She continued, “Also in homeschool we get to do more trips as a family. In regular school, I didn’t get to do those things. My favorite trip so far is Utah and hiking the Narrows in Zion National Park. You learn so much more in homeschool.”
She concluded, “I love my school and I love my teacher (Kate Lynch) and of course my mom.”
