Teaching Staff
The foremost thought of each Teacher is to promote an atmosphere that is warm and welcoming, so all children in their care can feel they are part of a special family. Because of their contact and subsequent bonding, each Teacher strives to create that environment of closeness.

In addition, the Teachers at the Children’s School at Saint John’s are educated in the field of early childhood education. They support the schools philosophy and provide developmentally appropriate and hands-on activities.

The Teachers at The Children's School at Saint John's are valued as professionals. The foremost goal of the school is to support each Teacher by providing a pleasant working environment and encouraging professional growth and development. As a measure to attract and retain competent individuals, all Teachers receive competitive salaries, full health care benefits, vacation and sick leave, retirement plan, tuition scholarship, and life and disability insurance. As a result, the teacher turn-over rate is extremely low, thus providing a stable environment for our families.
