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


So whether you’re hosting a Not Back to Roadschool party or simply reflecting on your journey, take a moment to celebrate. You’re part of a movement that’s redefining what learning can look like, and that’s worth cheering for. and at Learn to RV & Roadschooling Resources we are here to not only cheer you on. We are here to support you at every step on the journey.

The roadschooling movement isn’t powered by institutions—it’s powered by us. Every family, every story, every campfire conversation adds to the vibrant tapestry we’re weaving together.


You are the community.


And it’s up to each and every one of us to keep it thriving.


Spread the word.

Share your journey. Invite a new family. Post that resource. Host that meetup. Your voice matters.


Help others connect.

Whether it’s a Not Back to Roadschool party, a curriculum swap, or a spontaneous hike, every moment of connection strengthens our circle.


Build the future.

This isn’t just about learning on the road—it’s about creating a radically inclusive, endlessly curious, and deeply supportive way of life.


So let’s show up. Let’s celebrate. Let’s make sure no one feels like they’re on this journey alone.

At Learn to RV, we believe the summer is your chance to bring the fun to your family adventures! 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.


Whether you're parked at a scenic overlook or gathered around a picnic table, the Not Back to School movement is a chance to celebrate what makes roadschooling extraordinary. So bring the fun, share the love, and keep the circle wide.

Protecting Your RV Systems
By Amanda Pelser October 28, 2025
Your RV is parked in the campground in a beautiful national park, miles and miles from the nearest town. You and your family are out for a long hike. The kids are running ahead, and suddenly one of them takes a tumble over a tree root. Nothing major, but there’s a scraped knee and a sore ankle. And of course, one of the other kids freaks out at the sight of blood. Everyone seems to be fine. The nearest urgent care is an hour away, and you’d rather not pack up the rig and drive there for something minor. What if you had a simple, natural way to help your child feel better right where you are, without needing to find a clinic or pharmacy to use while on the way to the hospital for more serious issues? That’s where homeopathy comes in. Homeopathy is a natural system of health and wellness care that works with your body’s innate ability to heal and return to balance. It can be used alongside other natural modalities like herbs, essential oils, or even conventional pharmaceuticals. To define homeopathy, it’s easier to start with what it is not. Homeopathy is not home remedies, not herbs, not vitamins or supplements, and not a term for general natural health modalities. It’s based on the principle of similimum or, as Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, said, “like cures like.” In other words, a substance that could cause certain symptoms in its gross natural form can, when prepared in a highly diluted and potentized form, nudge the body back to homeostasis. I learned about homeopathy well over ten years ago, and by the time my family was RVing full time, it had already become our preferred way to care for our health and wellness, with other natural options sprinkled in as needed.
