This week Emilie and her guest, Letricia Osgood from Discovery Homeschool Academy, discuss options for both enrichment and academic programs offered by the Academy through partnership with local churches. Who knows…perhaps you’ll be inspired to seek out a similar program or even start your own!

If you or someone you know are interested in starting a homeschool group of any kind (traditional co-op, field trip group, resource center, hybrid academy – the sky’s the limit!), the Herzog Foundation has resources to help you. Check out https://hfschoolbox.com/ to learn more and be sure to let them know you learned about this great program from the Heart & Soul Homeschool Podcast!

Letricia Osgood is the Executive Director for both Academic and Enrichment programs at Discovery Homeschool Academy. She has a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from Baylor University in Waco, Texas with certifications in reading and elementary education. She also has a Master's Degree in Education from University of Kansas City. Letricia taught Kindergarten through 5th grade as a reading specialist for 6 years. She started and managed an after school tutoring program for 5 years. She created Discovery Homeschool Academy in the year 2000 and started with 35 students and 5 teachers. It has brought a lot of joy to watch God bless homeschooling families through DHA over the years. Letricia has homeschooled her own 4 kids and attends Manna church. Her goal is to bless and serve those that want to participate in DHA and is excited to host 3 locations.
