ACS is excited to welcome three more new teachers to our Upper School this year. Catie Lee (left), our new Middle School English teacher, comes to ACS after three years of teaching in Pittsgrove Township and at Ambassador Christian Academy. She has a Bachelor’s in Education with a minor in Special Ed. from Liberty University. She is currently working on a Master’s from Liberty as well. Lee and her husband, Casey, attend Kingsway Church in Glassboro where she serves on the Events Team. “I feel so blessed to be at ACS this year,” Lee says. “It is awesome to be part of a team that truly is ‘all in’ for Jesus.”
Amy Whisman (center) teaches High School History, applying both her Master’s degree in History from Liberty University and her teaching experience in local church and home-school settings. The Whisman family worships at Milmay Christian Church where Amy serves in women’s, children’s, and worship ministries, while her husband David is the lead minister. Joining Mrs. Whisman at ACS is her daughter, Rachel, who is in 10th grade.
Katie Callahan (right), a 2009 ACS alumna, teaches High School English. She has a BS in Psychology from Messiah College and an MFA in Creative Writing from Rutgers-Camden. Before joining the ACS faculty, Callahan was an adjunct English instructor at Camden County College and Atlantic Cape Community College. She attends Fellowship Community Church in Collingswood, NJ and leads a young adult community group there. “I am excited to be working at my alma mater,” Callahan said, “because I had wonderful teachers who encouraged me in Christ yet also pushed me to think for myself, and I get to be that teacher for so many unique, spiritually hungry kids. I also get to expose my students daily to what I believe are some of God’s greatest gifts to us: the abilities to create and communicate through writing, and the appreciation of those abilities in others through reading.”
