I hope and believe that the world can be a better place when every child knows that her voice matters, and when the balance of power shifts enough to allow all of us to listen. Serviam is an agent for that magnitude of transformation.

Serviam offers a vast of opportunities to educate the whole child. My passion is to be a part of modeling today's scholars into tomorrow's future! The girls have so much potential that we tap into each and every day! It can't get any better than that!

When I visited Serviam for the first time I met a student who told me that her goal was to learn as much as humanly possible. At that moment I knew that this was the right place for me. It is so important to give students who want to learn the best opportunity to do just that.

I passionately believe that education is a right of all children. Serviam offers a model of what an education can and should be. It provides the academic challenge that will prepare students for whatever path their future takes, while supporting them where they are now. I consider it a privilege to be a part of the Serviam community.

Life and all of its experiences has been the greatest teacher.

I choose to volunteer at Serviam because I believe passionately in Serviam's mission and the importance of a solid and challenging education for our girls.

Telling the story of Serviam and getting to know it's scholars is a delight. 

SGA is an exceptional school with dedicated and inspiring teachers and staff with a mission that I truly believe in.  I volunteer here to help in any way I can to further the program and goals of the school.  For the past 6 years I have seen the program in action, and for the most part, the resulting transition of the students from 5th grade through 8th grade has been outstanding.

I chose Serviam Girls Academy because I identified with the values of the organization and I had a great desire to collaborate with young women of the future.

Education has the power to offer students the tools for agency and change. As an educator, I strive to provide a meaningful and rigorous learning environment so that each student might be empowered by her own learning. I am grateful to be part of the Serviam community which shares in this commitment to personal and academic growth.

Serviam Girls Academy changes the trajectory of a young woman’s life in a positive way and I am thankful to be a part of such a meaningful organization.

“To whom much is given, much is required" - Luke 12:48

Self expression through literacy is so important for young girls. My insatiable love for the arts derived from the adventures that I went on in each book that I read as a young person. Pairing that with a love for learning, encourages me to share my passion with every student hoping to awaken something equally as special in each of them as their teacher. Serviam is a powerful place for awakening your “who” and “why” in the world.

The content of a book holds the power of education and it is with this power that we can shape our future and change lives.
