The Shady Lane School

People of Shady Lane

Great schools begin with dedicated, generous and positive people.

At Shady Lane, a dedicated team of educators leads each classroom. Our educators fall into one of two categories, signifying their role in the classroom and level of education and/or experience. Lead Educators are senior members of the staff who are both qualified by education/experience and service at Shady Lane to be responsible for their classroom’s schedule, curriculum and day-to-day functioning. Educators are important members of the classroom team who serve as co-educators, rather than assistants, and bring their own skills and experience to the classroom.
