Meet JoAn Stead

Hello! I’m a proud homeschool mom to 3 wonderful children, and I’ve been guiding their educational journeys from preschool all the way to high school graduation and beyond. It has truly been a blessing to play such an integral role in their education and daily lives. While it has come with its challenges, the experience has been deeply rewarding, full of growth, joy, and connection.
