Hear from Parents
Since becoming involved with Unbound’s Explore program, I have seen my daughter grow tremendously in her relationships with friends, siblings, and us as parents. The community of friends of all ages that she has gotten the privilege to learn with, to work with, and to grow together with have been a huge blessing in her life. God is so good! He hears our prayers, and this program has been an answer from Him to many of those prayers!
Svetlana K., Explore Parent
I can tell [Explore] is a positive experience and I love the topics and reading that I know are helping [our son] think deeper. Also glad he is part of discussions and connecting with other students regularly. Happy to see his idea and energy for his project. I doubt this would have happened otherwise.
