Andrew’s science students are often seen exploring the Sacred Woods, making deeper connections with our campus’ ecosystem through physical interaction. Sometimes his classes will meet outside simply to enjoy their lesson in a natural setting.
Faculty & Staff
Foote teachers instill a joy of learning by encouraging questions that lead students on an exciting journey of discovery. Teachers value each child’s input, thoughts, ideas and experiences. Two-thirds of our faculty members hold advanced degrees and almost half have been at Foote for more than 10 years.
Faculty & Staff Directory
Our faculty & staff share their passions with students across interdisciplinary lessons. Each year the maintenance staff taps trees on campus as part of the Kindergarten maple sugaring unit.
