Faculty

Every group at All Souls School is taught by three teachers who are all early childhood specialists. Classroom teams are often augmented by student teachers, interns, and when needed, special education teachers. A music and movement teacher also contributes to the children's educational experiences. Though each team has a group leader, teaching teams work collaboratively and participate in staff development activities for the entire faculty. Their experience and long tenure at All Souls School has made our faculty our greatest asset.
