Deacon Edwin (Cam) has always had a clear vision of what this school should be, and now serves as President of our board. Of course, every team needs a good accountant, and he is usually the one to get roped in – but in this case, it’s truly a labour of love.

A retired school teacher and past parish president at St George Orthodox Church, Paul’s practicality, work ethic and “get ‘er done” attitude always motivates us to push harder. Paul currently teaches PhysEd to our HKOA Co-Op students.

Our resident “page turner and wrench turner”, Ryan is a homeschooling father with fifteen years of experience as a teacher and guidance counsellor, and an active member of St Nicholas Orthodox Church. His joyful love of learning is clear and permeates the work he does with us. Ryan serves as Vice-President of our board, and we are blessed to have him!

Elissa has dreamed of and prayed for this school for so long, and is endlessly grateful that God has chosen this moment to bring it reality. She and her husband Cam belong to the Holy Trinity OCA Cathedral, but truly we feel as if all Orthodox churches in the city are just part of our extended church family. Elissa offers her time as the HKOA Co-op Coordinator and teaches faith lessons - only by the grace of God!

Nikki is a certified Manitoba teacher and faithful member of the UOCC, who has been working day in and day out on establishing this school . Her dedication and dependability are seen and greatly appreciated.

George is part of the Coptic Orthodox community and has more than 25 years of experience teaching math to children of all ages. His contributions are always thoughtful and valuable, and he quickly delivers on his promises.

Marian also comes to us from St Mark Coptic Orthodox Church. Her faithfulness and willingness to help, which stems from a strong desire to see this school come to life, has been a true blessing.

Justin’s passion for this project is always uplifting. Working in the IT field, he brings much knowledge, but certainly his boundless optimism and energy are just as valuable to us.
