My name is Deb Spradlin, and I am the administrator of Everest Academy.
About our family: I have been married to David, my high school sweetie, for 29 years. I have a 27-year-old and a 21-year-old. We love anything to do with water and are also a martial arts family, with 3 of the 4 members being black belts in one or more of the following arts: Yoshukai, Taekwondo, and Taijutsu. We grow a huge garden in the summer including veggies, herbs, and some fruits. In the past, we have frozen all of our harvest, but a few years ago we decided to try our hand at canning and loved it so much that we will continue to do both freezing and canning. We are very interested in eating clean and learning more everyday about buying organic and/or local.
About our homeschooling: My family has been homeschooling for 17 years, 27 if you count from the time my oldest was born. We are an unschooling family, sometimes using structured curriculum upon request. Our family members are very much hands-on learners, and we utilize lots of resources to learn including Netflix, workshops, field trips, games, internet links, experiments, mentoring opportunities, camps, traveling, co-ops, gardening, composting, martial arts, camping, library, lapbooking, timelines, etc... We are very hands on and love to get messy with learning!
One of my children dual enrolled at a local community college in high school. Both of my children scored very well on the ACT exam and went to college on scholarship. They are both now thriving adults.
