Learning Coach Spotlight
Catharine Hunter
Catharine and her family joined Home Choice in the fall of 2021. She chose this program because she likes being a part of her kidβs educationβa piece of the puzzle! She is most excited about her son growing in his enjoyment of school and finding out how his interests are developing as a young man. When Catharine was a student her favorite subject was science!
We are happy she is here!
