About

Welcome to Reach High Learning!

Reach High Learning provides learning that would answer the needs of today's youth through a holistic approach illumined by the Gospel message.

We offer learning curriculum or program to guide students and parents to realize their individuality or uniqueness and help them build their relationship with God, with their families, with the community and the society.

Reach High Learning is a Home-based Enrichment Program serving ALL Learners through a Holistic Learning approach.  A holistic learning is mentally, physically and spiritually oriented towards achieving the full potential of an individual. 

Figure 1.1

Engendering parent support for the core learning principles and parent involvement in the learning process is of utmost importance (Moll, 1990; 1986a, 1986b).  Figure 1.1 shows the percentage of time, during a calendar year, that students in a large school dis- trict spent in school.  If one-third of their time outside school (not counting sleeping) is spent watching television, then students apparently spend more hours per year watching television than attending school.  A focus only on the hours that students currently spend in school overlooks the many opportunities for guided learning in other settings. (Bransford, How People Learn)

The question is how do you ensure that your child spend a good quality time of evaluating what she/he learned from school and how do you help your child to be self-regulated to study and love learning.

The reality in the classroom environment is that the teacher cannot always give a one-on-one guidance to your child’s learning.  It is essential that parents be involved in their child’s education as their primary teacher and educator.  Our task and mission is to help parents to guide their children to reach high to attain their child’s full potential through a holistic learning approach.
