OUR STAFF
We are proud of our faculty, administration, and staff! Our most important resources are the people who strive to implement and support an enriching program that embraces core academics, the development of character, and a broad exposure to the fine arts and physical education. The school's outstanding early childhood and elementary educators form a unique team that is dedicated to the education of preschool-age children through pre-adolescence. The administrative team provides leadership toward the achievement of the school’s strategic initiatives and vision. The school’s dedicated staff help ensure professional management of resources and facilities. Together, we form a team that focuses on the care and education of our students, in partnership with parents.
