Biography:
Charlene contributes experience from a number of venues, including homeschooling her children, PTA, and other school site committees and boards. Because she believes in parent choice, and because she has a child with learning challenges, she has continued to desire to be a part of a school choice and/or homeschool program. River Springs Charter School is that blending that allows for her to serve the families, students, and communities by providing and supporting these various choices. Charlene realizes that each student learns in different ways and the importance of providing diverse opportunities to those families seeking alternative and creative ways to teach their child/children. She continues her own personal education by auditing classes, editing books on occasion, learning new activities, and reading at every opportunity.
