Miss Connie

Background
-
I left the corporate world after 12 years on a buy-out and decided to stay home to care for my toddler and homeschool my teen. I was lucky enough that my first students were exceptionally bright and challenged me to teach them, rather than just watch them. Since I had been homeschooling my son, it was a natural progression for my daycare to blossom into a learning intensive environment, a school.
