Our Teachers

Your child will be nurtured and educated by caring teachers who have extraordinary experience and who have been with Turrell for many years, providing a continuity of care that is so important for children. Our teachers stay at Turrell because they are valued, appreciated and given the tools they need to teach effectively. Our director has been here since 1978 and has built a strong, stable team that shares a home-school partnership philosophy and approach to teaching.
