Lauren Restina

Owner, Educator

Growing up in Naples, FL I developed a strong love of the ocean and the natural world. My family traveled as much as possible, further developing my curious spirit! I have always gravitated towards the arts and science-based subjects in school. With that being said, I originally attended college on a music scholarship to Concordia University Nebraska for vocal performance. However, I chose to double-major in geography & biology instead, graduating with my Bachelor’s degree in 2012. My deep love for both science and education led me to pursue a M.Ed in Environmental Education from Concordia University Portland, graduating in 2016.

My wonderful husband Scott supports me in every one of my passion projects, goals, and ventures. Scott is a veteran golfer and a professional caddy. We share two beautiful kiddos, Elsa and Anthony. I couldn’t be more thankful for him and Dustin’s support and for pushing Kristin and I to finally open Harmony Hybrid Education, Inc. after years of, ‘daydreaming.’

After teaching many different age groups for the past 7 years and administrative work for three of those years, Kristin and I decided it was time for a major change. Our children were the largest reason we decided to choose this path and pursue this unique style of hybrid blended learning. Our main goal was to create a harmonious space for engaged learning and enriching lessons throughout all subjects. Alongside customizing our facility down to every detail, being able to bring a true love of learning back to each student was the driving factor behind Harmony! We are thrilled to finally be serving children and their families in our own special way. We cannot wait to welcome the endless opportunities to come!

Kristin Reagle

Owner, Business Manager

I attended Indian River State College and graduated with my degree in Organizational Management. Naturally, being a business major was what cultivated that passion to one day have a business of my own. My career in education bloomed once my own children started school and I was offered a job in their educational system. The experience I had while teaching and the knowledge gained as an admin was priceless. In 2019, I met my new coworker Lauren and we instantly had a bond that would carry us through the best adventure of being co-business owners. Our like mindset was heightened in 2020 during COVID. As educators and administrators, we saw a desire for an alternative education. An education that involved a more hands on approach, applying the Florida Standards to real life situations, nurturing the students social and emotional health, and promoting a nature-based environment.

In August 2022, our hearts led us to follow our dream. The idea of Harmony Hybrid Education was always that, just an idea, until Lauren and I’s husbands, who like I said are incredibly supportive, convinced us that not only did our own children need a school like Harmony, but so did our community. As a result of four months of lesson planning, major construction, and everything that goes along with opening a new business, Harmony opened its doors in January 2023. My family and the Restina’s couldn’t be happier to share Harmony with you all!

Before coming to Harmony, I spent 15 years teaching in the Martin County School District. During that time, I taught students in grades K–5 and spent 8 years as an instructional literacy coach, supporting teachers in strengthening reading instruction. I’m certified in Exceptional Student Education (ESE) and I also hold a Reading Endorsement. In 2022, I was honored to be named JD Parker’s Teacher of the Year.

Literacy has always been a passion of mine, and I work hard to share that love of reading with every student I teach.

Outside of school, I’ve been married to my husband, Anthony, since 2010. We have two boys, Easton and Copeland, and as a family we enjoy camping, fishing, golfing, watching the Pittsburgh Steelers, and spending time outdoors.

I’m excited to be back in the classroom and to be part of the amazing team at Harmony.

Outside of the classroom, I love staying active and spending time outdoors. You can usually find me walking my dog, Thor, relaxing at the beach, or getting in a great CrossFit or yoga session. I also love traveling and exploring new places with my boyfriend! I’m truly thrilled and grateful to start this new chapter, and I can’t wait to be part of the Harmony family.
