faculty
It takes a special person to be a teacher, but it takes a special teacher to be a Raintree teacher.
Our faculty, with paint-smudged faces and mud on their pants, are dedicated to the delicate art of teaching. Every faculty member is certified in early childhood or elementary education and serves as your child’s guide during the most important years of their academic and social life.
