Who We Are

As you may have noticed, we have been growing and have some exciting additions to what we offer here at Reach Out. As it has been a while since we introduced ourselves, we thought we would share our story with you to help you better understand who we are and what we do!

Our Mission

Our Story

Reach Out was created by a small group of dedicated mothers, perhaps much like yourself. They were brought together by a common vision for the educational needs of their children. Some were looking for an educational program that could offer their children access to the ideas, teaching philosophy, and methodology that matched what they had experienced while living abroad. Others were looking for an internationalized curriculum that their children could access to enrich their educational experience in China. What they shared in common was a desire for a rigorous program that also opened the doors to creative and critical thinking, self-reflection, and personal expression - the hallmarks of a strong international curriculum. After spending considerable time exploring various options, these moms were not able to find anything that quite met their children’s needs.

ስለዚህ, they did what any good mother would do, given the chance, and found their own way to offer their children the best possible learning opportunities designed to help them thrive. They consulted expert teachers and worked with other parents to discover how they could best meet the needs of other children with similar goals. Children, we hope, like yours.

The parents were committed to:

  • A curriculum that offered students to experience learning through a philosophy of exploration, development of essential skills, building an understanding of what it means to be a unique individual with a distinct voice
  • A way of instilling the values of independence and critical thinking by guiding students to develop their skills
  • An experience that was meaningful yet did not add undue pressure to the students’ lives, but more opened their minds to the pleasure of enriching their knowledge while allowing them to take ownership of their own learning
  • Teaching methods that allowed students to develop their own style, their own voice, so that the voice in their hearts can show to the world
  • A platform that allowed parents to learn and grow in their own understanding of internationalized education and opportunities
  • Providing ways for students to develop strategies allowing them to work smarter not harder so that they may enjoy their childhoods

We are happy to say that these mothers have achieved their goal. Today Reach Out boasts a complete line of rigorous yet engaging courses in which students learn deeply while having fun and creating meaningful relationships with their teachers and peers.

All of this because of our founding mothers’ commitment to their children’s education and happiness.

Our Curriculum

Our Blue Line curriculum, which includes courses for students in Grades 2 to 8, was designed by expert educators with advanced level degrees in their subject areas who have spent decades in some of the top international schools in the world. We use backwards curriculum design working our way from the first year of programs such as the widely recognized and respected IGCSE program.

As our educators have spent years teaching courses pre-IGCSE, IGCSE, IB and AP or A Levels curriculum, they understand what students need to succeed in those programs. ስለዚህ, each aspect of our curriculum has been created to make sure that all of our students enter their first day of Grade 9 feeling confident, equipped, and prepared to meet the demands of these rigorous courses.

We offer a wide range of courses in the subjects of English, ሒሳብ, History and Geography. See below for more detailed information on our full course offerings.
