Every single one of them would make a valuable addition to your family. Remember, choose wisely who your kids’ (and you) look up to and learn from.

Robin Mackey (she/her)

Elementary Teacher
Robin has been with us since 2020 - she is overloaded with excitement, enthusiasm, and creativity! And she gets to use all of that creativity to help kids find ways in which they learn best! Robin is a longtime theater & dance artist, enthusiast, and educator- and she even directed and choreographed our very own productions of HONK Jr! and The Addams Family Musical.
Jes Malone (she/her)

Middle/High Teacher
Jes is a deep thinker and a star lover. Her philosophy degree fits perfectly with the age group in which she guides - teens who want (and need) to question, challenge, and push the status quo. Jes’ calming energy has been grounding the entire school - kids and adults - since 2021. When she’s not at school, you’ll find her reading, listening to music (likely Phish), or gardening.
Robyn Fatseas (she/her)

LMHC, School Therapist
Robyn is the unicorn child psychologist you’ve dreamed about. She is unbelievably educated, experienced, and brilliant. She is also creative, curious, and compassionate (just like all of our kids are!) Trust the kids when they tell you - she’s pure magic. We’re lucky enough to have had Robyn as part of our team since 2021.
