REEA is my "Power Pack". This is my resource for re-energizing and where I turn for a recharge. REEA is my deep well of knowledge. I know that within the membership I can find an expert on anything educational and someone willing to share. REEA is my support system. Being an independent Instructor and small independent school owner, it can sometimes feel lonely. The REEA Community is the great network of professionals who help me stay informed and connected. REEA Rocks!
