I help my students by guiding them to notice and appreciate the details. Their growth in virtue rarely happens in big, dramatic moments in First Grade; rather, it comes when they make daily commitments to doing the next small, right thing. One ""yes"" at a time, their handwriting becomes more beautiful, their speech more thoughtful, their friendships more considerate, and their hearts more reverent.

Mrs. Corbett is our 1st Grade Teacher

~Teacher Spotlight: Marianne Swain
“In our study of history, philosophy, theology, and literature, I invite students to see that the life of the mind is also the life of the soul. We are not merely informed but transformed, learning to love what is true, good, and beautiful. My hope is to cultivate in them a posture of wonder and humility, that through the great conversation of the ages they might be formed toward wisdom and the love of God.”

Dr. Swain is our 9th and 11th Grade Humanities Teacher
