Emily Warren
I hold a bachelor's degree in English from the University of Louisville and spent the first decade of my career teaching dance classes to school-age children. Before joining Virginia Chance School, I collaborated with college professors in Georgia to help them procure course materials. This role enhanced my appreciation for education and underscored the importance of instilling a love for learning from an early age.
As the Auxiliary Programs Director at Virginia Chance School, I'm passionate about making our extended day programs fun and engaging for all our students! Each summer, I have the joy of leading the "Summer Under The Trees" camp program, where we work together to create a magical experience for everyone. I love seeing the smiles and laughter each of these programs brings to our students!
My diverse background in both practical teaching and academic support makes me well-suited to guide our Extended Programs. I bring extensive experience and a deep commitment to nurturing young minds. This extensive hands-on experience has equipped me with the ability to connect with children and foster their growth in a creative and engaging way. I love the challenge of building the framework and guiding our students through the Auxiliary Programs in progressive education at Virginia Chance School.
My passion for working with children and my belief in the power of learning through play and hands-on experiences align perfectly with Virginia Chance School's philosophy. Over my years here, I have taught and supervised hundreds of children, witnessing firsthand their blossoming confidence, eagerness to learn, and self-motivation. The committed teachers, auxiliary guides, and camp counselors, along with an engaging curriculum, truly enhance each child's education and childhood.
Outside of my professional life, I enjoy spending quality time with my loved ones, walking my dog, dancing, and reading. I am thrilled to continue my journey with the Chance team and look forward to another year of inspiring and supporting your children.
