The alternative learning environment at LRA provides families access to a different approach to learning using a combination of in-class curriculum and homeschooling. “We like to seek out a variety of presenters to come and give lessons depending on the units we’re covering in class,” LRA’s K-5 teacher Teri Retter said in a news release. Guest speakers are invited to the LRA each week for Wednesday Workshops where students learn about science, art, math and a variety of other subjects from experts.
