Presenters
Sunny Raybern
Community & Social Media Manager
Sunny has loved books for as long as she can remember. Her own parents discovered Sonlight at a convention and knew the literature and history focus would be perfect for her. She never planned to homeschool her own children past pre-k, but when her daughter learned to read, she was hooked. She has educated both of her children entirely with Sonlight. In her spare time, Sunny enjoys reading (of course), musicals, hiking, and being in or near water.
Johna Lawrence
Marketing & Product Development Coordinator
Wife, Mom, Marmee, Homeschool Administrator, and in my spare Mission Board Treasurer. After 23 years of teaching my children, being involved in Homeschool Co-Ops as a teacher and in leadership. I have found my biggest passion outside of my family is helping families find the joy of homeschooling, approaching it without fear, and to love the moments as they present themselves. I have used Sonlight since our first curriculum purchase in 1999, with four different learning styles with four children it has been the perfect fit for our family. The best verse for my approach for life comes from 2 Timothy 1:7.
“ for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.”
Jennifer Price
Homeschool Mom & Sonlight Mentor
Jen Moskal Price majored in English at the University of Delaware, so spending a lifetime reading to her children was an appealing idea. She discovered Sonlight early in her homeschool journey, and has used it every year since 2003 with all four of her children. Her oldest graduated from home, and some of the others have gone to public high school. Jen has worked in the Sonlight booth at various conventions for a decade – talking to moms about how to handle more than one HBL at a time, how to balance work and homeschooling, homeschooling as a single mom, and parenting athletes and artists. In her free time, she enjoys driving her kids to their sporting events and trying to convince her husband that he wants a dog.
