Meet Our Lead Teachers and Administrative Team
We believe any school is only as good as its faculty. These individuals are the essential link between the child and the educational philosophy, the learning materials and the prepared environment. They need to be dedicated, committed "guides" and, through observation, continuously striving to know each child as an individual and have the ability to work well within the school community of teachers and parents. Our teaching and administrative staff reflects these attributes bringing a diverse educational background and a long term commitment to MCMS.
