Our faculty believes in and are committed to the education of the whole child. In addition to the skillful teaching of their subject areas, they coach, serve as advisors, counsel extra –curricular activities and are mentors, role models and friends to their students. Their involvement extends far beyond the classroom and academic day – they are active listeners and are always available for extra help sessions.  Rewards come in the form of alumni returning to say thank you for the roles they have played in their growth as learners.

It has been written that “a great teacher has the ability to lead students to ask questions and search for answers; that he is a discussion leader, a creative individual whose enthusiasm for knowledge and articulation of his subject material is matched only by his enthusiasm for his students.” Mooreland Hill has great teachers.
