CPT RJ Reich earned his undergraduate degree at Washington College in Chestertown, Maryland. After college, he spent four years at Carson Long Military Academy in New Bloomfield, Pennsylvania as a social studies instructor, TAC Officer, and Track and Field coach until the summer of 2018 when that academy – one of the oldest in the entire country – closed its doors after over 200 years.
Partly into the 2018-19 school year he joined the faculty of Hargrave Military Academy, after uprooting his life in Pennsylvania, and moved down to southern Virginia to start a new journey in his social studies teaching career – and he couldn’t be happier!
