NORTH CHESTERFIELD, Va. The Laurel School is proud to announce that our founding faculty is complete. We have welcomed four teachers and one administrator, together bringing 97 combined years of experience to our JK–6 classrooms.
This is a fantastic group. Each of these educators was chosen not only for their skill but for their character, and together they share a commitment to knowing every child, teaching with care and clarity, and building the kind of small, purposeful school families deserve.

Ready for Our Founding Year
With our full faculty in place, The Laurel School is ready to welcome its founding families this September. Our teachers are already preparing classrooms, refining pacing plans, and gathering the everyday materials that make a school feel like a home for learning.
We look forward to introducing each of them more fully in the weeks ahead through The Hawkeye, our weekly family newsletter, and in person at Meet the Teacher on Monday, September 1.
