I enjoy helping the little ones walk out becoming an individual in their start with education. I feel the early days out of the home are crucial in how they view their school career. I hope to be a tool in making that a success and giving them a love for their school days. I strive to show each student the great potential God has placed in each one of them.

I look forward to partnering with families as Dean of Students and overseeing the discipline and spiritual welfare of our students at VLA. Conflict is an opportunity for us to grow.

Ms. Holder has a God-given gift to share “Christian Science,” in a world full of secular education. She loves that at VLA she has the opportunity to share the truth of Creation Science with her students that not only gives them a firm and sound education but teaches them about the essence and character of God modeled by creation. She is passionate about her students having a thorough and centered educational experience.

Education is more than just books, computers, paper and pencils. It is receiving and giving instruction, learning, values, habits, beliefs, morals, and acquiring skills that facilitate the growth and development of individuals. My heart is for each and every student at VLA. I want to see them develop and use the talents that the Lord has given them to build the kingdom of God. There is something special about each student and as an Educator one needs to make sure that each student feels loved, appreciated, and special while focusing on their educational, emotional, spiritual, physical growth and development.
