Kristin offers staff a supportive environment, which enables them to provide a positive and encouraging learning environment. Integration of specialist support staff allows teachers more time to focus on individual students’ needs, with numerous opportunities for rewarding staff involvement in and out of the classroom. Our small class sizes provide more time for our staff to truly know each student and help them to thrive.
