Highpoint Academy's Administration, Faculty and Staff

The Faculty and Staff at Highpoint Academy all shares numerous traits, including love for children, total dedication and commitment to education, the ability to nurture and the skills and credentials to teach successfully. All teachers hold the required Degrees and most have many years of experience. Over 80% of our Administration and Faculty have been members of the Highpoint Family for 15 years or more!  All faculty members and staff are encouraged to be innovative and creative; to seek positive solutions and to be open to “changes” at all times.  They work with their hearts! ​We are so proud of our Administrators, Faculty Members and Staff!  

​Our goal and commitment is to provide the highest overall quality education possible for the students. Our Faculty and Staff Teams are continuously trained so they understand and abide by our schools mission, philosophy, and specific goals and objectives. 

Our "New Vision Administration Team" members are always available to assist and guide the teachers. Division Teams meet monthly to share ideas and discuss matters of general importance. Faculty Meetings are also held quarterly.  Input and shared decision making between Faculty and Administration are considered vital to the school’s success. In addition, our teachers  attend continuing education courses throughout the year so they can stay abreast of education trends.
