Leadership

I have a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education and I love teaching this age because they are like little sponges, seeing the lightbulbs go off inside their brains is always so rewarding.

I have been married for 13 years and have 2 children, Blakely and Ellie. My family is active in our local church and I help With various areas Within the children's ministry.

I am so excited for this upcoming school year and getting to know all of our students!

Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

I have experience in Early Education and Child Development and taught my own children at home for 5 years. I adore the inquisitive nature of 1st and 2nd graders! They want to know how everything works and I love being able to point out God's design in everything around us.

I have been married for almost 19 years and we have two fabulous children Elijah and LilyAnne. We are a board game loving family and things can get quite competitive in the Hayes Household. (All in good fun!)

My hope for this upcoming school year is that God will speak to the hearts of each and every one of our students. I cannot wait to see their Knowledge and love for God's creation grow throughout the year!

With seven years of classroom experience, I am passionate about creating a nurturing and engaging environment where young minds can grow and thrive. I’ve always believed that teaching is more than a profession—it’s a calling.
