Our teachers are our greatest asset at the Academy. Each are qualified to work with children and have expertise within their given subjects. We have lead teachers for every level that specialize in the behavioral, social, and spiritual development of our students. Course teachers teach alongside lead teachers, specializing in a certain subject or skill. Together our lead and course teachers provide our students with the support and skills they need to gain competency in a given subject, along with personal maturation.
