iLEAD AV Exploration Learner Spotlight: Noah
Meet Noah, a 6th grader who is completing his first year with iLEAD AV Exploration. Noah loves our meetups, sports, and nature exploration. He enjoys home study for lots of reasons, including the chance to do school in his pajamas! Let’s get to know Noah.
Why did you choose to enroll at iLEAD AV Exploration?
I thought it would be fun for my mom to be my facilitator. Also, I get to do school in my pajamas.
What is your best memory of your time at iLEAD AV Exploration so far?
My best memory is playing soccer at workshop.
Who is a strong iLEAD AV Exploration influence and why?
Ms. Taranto because she’s a nice facilitator. She teaches me a lot and is good at explaining things.
Why did your family decide to homeschool, and what does it allow you to do that you couldn’t do at other schools?
My family picked homeschooling because it lets me learn in a way that fits me best. It allows me to go on meetups. I like to get out in nature.
Who would you like to give a shoutout to at iLEAD AV Exploration? Who has helped you and how?
Ms. Taranto. She’s helped me understand multiplying fractions and percentages. She’s also helped me with writing essays.
Join us in celebrating Noah’s outstanding effort, tenacity, and positive attitude!

A community of family volunteers who support our school. We may call on iSUPPORT members to volunteer in the classroom, help with curriculum collection and checkouts, assist with family events, be a welcoming committee to new families, advertise for us by word of mouth in the community, assist on field trips, be a resource to new homeschool families, or help with planning of special events. iSUPPORT also helps to keep families updated on what is taking place within our iLEAD AV Exploration family. It is a great way to connect with each other. We value our volunteers!
