The Teachers Who Will Know Your Child by Name
There is no more important work than forming the next generation. Our teachers come from many backgrounds, but they are united by one goal: to ignite a passion for learning and a love of Christ in every student. In small classes, from the youngest grades through graduation, your child is known personally.
Lower School Faculty
Elementary • Grades K-6
From kindergarten through sixth grade, our lower school teachers are creative, vibrant, and devoted. They introduce students to the worlds of Narnia and Middle Earth, lead the recitation of the rosary, build snow forts, explore static electricity with a soda can, and guide first attempts at diagramming sentences.
