I believe each student is an individual, each with their own interests and experiences to share. It is important to use these interests to guide their curriculum. Students learn best when they are taught in a manner that allows them to take ownership in their learning and have a voice in the learning process. Therefore, students will strive to their highest achieving potential when they are motivated with these key components in mind..

In order to help students accomplish the most from their learning, it is important to form relationships with all members of the student's educational team including parents, teachers, administrative support and the student themselves. I look forward to meeting each family at Elgin Academy and become a part of the student’s successful educational journey.

Since I came to Elgin Academy as a parent, I saw that Elgin Academy is a place for students to learn who they really are. They are encouraged to be risk takers, to take chances and to go outside of their comfort zone.As a result, graduates of EA are prepared to take on the world and do amazing things

When the opportunity arose to join the Marketing and Admissions staff, I was thrilled to be able to play a more active role in helping to bring more students to campus and let others in the community know about Elgin Academy.Elgin Academy is a unique community of students, teachers, staff and family who come together to create an atmosphere of learning, caring and creativity and I love that it’s my job to tell everyone about it.

I am passionate about fostering cultural diversity through student exchange and international education. It is my mission to enhance cultural perspectives, mutual respect, and global responsibility through building programs and services for the development of international students, local students and the greater community of Elgin.

My goal as the Receptionist/Athletic Assistant is to make each student and family member feel welcomed and excited to know they made the right choice in Elgin Academy as they come through our doors and to our athletic events.
