Learning is not the product of teaching. It is the product of the activity of learners.

She aspires for every child to see their potential and ability, and wants them to know that they possess a gift that will make a positive impact on this world.

Sara Adams
Wonder GUIDE
enrichment & Student wellness
We are over the moon that Sara Adams will be sharing her experience in student wellness, holistic health and physical education, and as a visual art and technology, and theater director. Sara's has not only taught, but designed middle school classes, where technology, art, and the outdoors collided to create "art with a purpose." In addition, Sara served as the Student Wellness Coordinator at a private IB middle and high school, where she co-developed a program to address the physical, emotional and academic needs of all students, and to incorporate adaptive coping skills into their daily routine. In her spare time, Sara directed a number of productions, instructing drama students, and managing stage and tech aspects of several shows. Prior to working directly with students, she served as Finance and Business Office Manager, and Admissions Director at a private school and nonprofit organization.
​
We're excited that Miss Sara has joined our team and can't think of more well-rounded or qualified person to lead our enrichment program and student wellness efforts.
