TEACHERS & STAFF
TEACHER DANA is our Lead Teacher and Administrator. This is her 27th year at Catch the Son. She joined our staff in 1997 after being involved for several years as a parent, board member, and substitute teacher. Dana attended WWU taking classes in Education. She and her husband Reed have three grown daughters and two grandchildren!
TEACHER MADDIE teaches our Pre-K class. This is her fourth-year teaching at Catch the Son but enjoyed substitute teaching and a sub-leave position at our school. Maddie has also previously taught in the elementary and preschool setting. She earned her special and elementary education degrees from WWU. Maddie enjoys spending time with her family. She especially likes going on family walks and to local parks with her husband Brett and two children. Her daughter Monroe is 8 and her son Van is 6!
TEACHER LINDSAY teaches our 2-day preschool class. This is her second year teaching at Catch the Son, but has been a part of the Catch the Son community for the last 6 years! She received college degrees in both Spanish and Psychology and has worked as a Spanish translator in both the community health and corporate world. Lindsay and her husband have two young (energetic!) boys, who both attended Catch the Son for preschool and Pre-K. When she isn't at school or hanging out with her family, you can find her running, playing tennis, baking or at the lake.
TEACHER GWYN teaches the 3-day preschool class. This is her first year with Catch the Son, and she is excited to be part of the community here. She has been teaching preschool for over 14 years in the Bellingham area.
PASTOR JANA is the senior pastor of Christ the Servant Lutheran Church. Along with Ms. Nicole, Pastor Jana provides developmentally appropriate and engaging chapel time for our preschool classes. In addition to chapel time, she provides pastoral care and guidance to the preschool staff and preschool families.
