MEMBER IN THE SPOTLIGHT

CHHRC member and homeschooler is making moves in tennis!

Rebecca is in her second year of homeschool. “I absolutely love it, but it comes with some challenges that make me a stronger athlete and student."

Her tennis ranking has increased and went from being 50 in the middle states to now being a top ten player in the 14s Middle States and traveling/qualifying to the national tournament this year.

“I am very excited to start playing International tournaments as well, which will begin next year”. Rebecca is also a competitive Irish dancer. “I have been very successful in those competitions, as I have won nationals a few times. As well as that, my team has performed at the Philadelphia St. Patrick’s Day Parade, Phillies games, as well as a halftime performance at a Flyers Game.” Rebecca stated, "Without this team of excellent coaches, I wouldn’t be where I am.”

Rebecca has traveled for national tennis tournaments, national Irish dance competitions, while maintaining a 4.0 GPA in all 7 of her classes while doing so.

Rebecca, you are a rock star, and you are shining bright! Congratulations on all of your success, and we look forward to many more.
