FACULTY & STAFF
When you have questions, the first person to ask should be your child’s Elementary Teacher. In cases when they are unable to find the answer, you may be referred to the Deputy Head of School (Principal).
Each person has a specific role, which we would like to review so you will know who to go to when you have questions. In order to do that, here are the highlights of each person’s role in supporting your student.
Learning Coach: This person is also frequently the parent. The Learning Coach ensures continuous student progress within the TK-12 curriculum, including logging in daily to review lesson plans and attendance. Learning Coaches participate in scheduled parent-teacher calls, check email daily, submit student work samples/documents on schedule, ensure that students participate in required testing, and complete surveys when sent out. The Learning Coach is the primary contact for the student as they navigate their education.
Our dedicated and talented administrative team provides comprehensive academic services for all students.
