Meet the Team

Dedication. Expertise. Passion.

Our team is the heart of Tamarack School, made up of educators, adventurers, artists, scientists, and problem-solvers who believe school should feel engaging, joyful, and deeply connected to the world around us. Whether in the classroom or out on the trail, we value curiosity, collaboration, a deep commitment to strong relationships, and the belief that children grow best when they feel supported, capable, and excited to learn.
