Enrichment Team Leaders


These wonderful ladies are who we have to thank for making the enrichment program happen. They take time away from their own families and homeschools to make sure all BHEA members can experience fun, safe and educational co-op sessions. Please be sure to take time to say thank you when you see them. If you have questions for the elementary or high school enrichment teams, please send an email to [email protected].
