Faculty and Staff
Chartwell’s faculty and staff care deeply about their work. Currently, 100 percent of Chartwell employees donate to the school, and many of them also volunteer their time at fundraisers and events. Our many educational, business, and campus awards are the result of a dedicated, cohesive team that believes absolutely in Chartwell’s mission.
Chartwell’s faculty specializes in language development and linguistic structures related to reading, writing, mathematics and all other disciplines. They are enthusiastic educators and specialists, and many hold advanced degrees. Our faculty also includes a physical education instructor, two speech and language therapists, and an occupational therapist. The faculty members understand how to develop higher order cognition. They value problem-solving, diagnostic instruction, character development and home communication as essential elements for lifelong learning and student success.
