SJHA Founders

Danielle Liguori has been home educating and providing supplementary education to low-income and foster children for almost 2 decades. After 5 years of activity on the PTO of her local school, Danielle switched to homeschooling 3 children aged 11-16 during the 2020 school closures. During that time she realized the value of home education, but also the need for more social opportunities for older students that provided leadership and collaborative work. What initially started as a casual activity group expanded with the help of my co-founders into an all inclusive opportunity for local homeschool families.

Amanda Arnold has been homeschooling since 2016. She is a wife and mother of three children. Amanda runs multiple small businesses but the majority of her experience is in graphic design, teaching, and non-profit work. When searching for local homeschool enrichment opportunities, she found that many appealed to younger kids, so she co-founded this network in efforts to help bridge that gap. Amanda also wanted a safe environment that welcomed all families, no matter what their personal religious beliefs are. In her free time she enjoys playing Nintendo switch and drawing.
