In the summer of 2012, Ms. Cam Holcomb, an educator and parent of a child with autism, and Ms. Stephanie Kaloupek, a fellow educator, began discussing the need for higher-quality educational opportunities for neurodiverse students. As the number of children with learning challenges continued to rise, they recognized the urgent need to rethink how students were being supported within the public school system. 

 

Through their research, they quickly discovered that families in the Jacksonville area had very limited options. This realization sparked their journey to establish Reach Academy, Inc.—a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to creating meaningful educational opportunities for children with learning challenges and their families.

​

At Reach Academy, Inc., we understand the daily challenges faced by students and their families. We believe every child with learning differences is a unique individual who deserves access to a high-quality education built on research-based curriculum, individualized instruction, and an innovative environment designed to be engaging, inclusive, and responsive to each child’s developmental needs.
