Let's Celebrate! The NOT back to ROADschool Party!
Jennifer Schillaci • August 12, 2025
While traditional students head back to school, roadschoolers can gather just about anywhere to celebrate learning on their own terms.

SO What exactly is a "Not Back to Roadschool Party?"
It's a season of Celebration of Freedom, Connection, and Choice
As traditional schools swing back into session, roadschoolers across the country are celebrating something entirely different—a celebration of learning without walls, friendships forged on the move, and the bold choices that shape our families’ paths.
It's the Freedom to Learn Anywhere
Roadschooling isn’t just an educational method—it’s a lifestyle rooted in curiosity, adventure, and flexibility. Whether it’s reading under red rock cliffs, exploring science in national parks, or journaling beside a quiet lake, learning happens everywhere. This season, we honor the joy of discovering the world together, one mile at a time.
We embrace Community Connection
The roadschool community is more than a network, it’s a lifeline. If you can host a small gathering it's a chance for RV families to meet face-to-face, swap stories, share resources, and build friendships that stretch across states and seasons year after year. It’s a reminder that even when we travel solo, we’re never alone.
It's a Celebration of Choice
Choosing to homeschool and roadschool takes courage, creativity, and a deep commitment to our children’s growth. It needs to be an intention journey and forge community and connections as we experience this lifestyle. This celebration recognizes the families who’ve stepped off the beaten path to craft something extraordinary. It's celebrating an education that fits your family values, rhythms, and dreams

Pack the essentials—think games, crafts, and snacks that travel well—because joy should always be on the itinerary. Spotlight the kids by inviting them to share their summer stories, perform a skit, or showcase new skills. Plan playful activities like scavenger hunts or bike rides that encourage movement and connection. Let’s create lasting memories on the road, one laugh at a time!

Roadschooling is more than just an educational journey; it’s a beautifully liberating lifestyle that brings families closer together... and it's even more fun with friendships. We have the freedom to explore new places and the flexibility to learn in unique environments, as each day unfolds with the magic of shared experiences. Create keepsakes like a “learning passport” or memory book to capture these adventures, helping kids reflect on what they’ve learned and dreamed about. Plus, don’t forget to swap wisdom with fellow traveling families—curriculum ideas, travel tips, and favorite resources can enrich your journey even more.

The roadschooling community flourishes when everyone feels embraced. By opening our circle, we create space for both newcomers and seasoned travelers to share their unique stories—each one adds invaluable wisdom. We celebrate diversity in all its forms, welcoming different ages, learning styles, and backgrounds. Here, everyone has a voice, and no one sits in the “second row.” Together, let’s foster a culture where everyone is seen, heard, and valued on this incredible journey.
