Hallie has been a part of the homeschool community for over 20 years.  She graduated

as a homeschool student with HCYA and has been homeschooling her own children

since 2007. She has been married to her husband Chris for 23 years and they have 4

children. For Hallie, homeschooling is important because she wants children to have a

creation and Christ-centered education. 

Hallie is a certified group fitness instructor with the Athletics and Fitness Association of

America (AFAA) and National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM). She currently

holds a specialized certification in Youth Exercise.

Hallie loves history and believes it should not just be a memorization of facts, but an

engaging, fun class that includes projects, field trips, food, and reading great literature

that opens our eyes to what once was. Her goal is to not only teach what is necessary

but hopefully instill in the students a love for our past and a desire to learn from that and

make a difference in our future.

For the past 3 years, Hallie has taught physical fitness and Mystery of History. This

experience has taught her how to manage a class of students and how to create a

working yet flexible curriculum. She understands that each student is unique and the

importance of creating a program that reaches each student in their learning style.
