VIANNEY ACADEMY
Our Team
Our staff work as one team around each student, so every child gets the support they need to thrive. Each staff member connects with each student every day, which gives Vianney its close community feeling.
Karen Uschold
Founder, principal and elementary teacher
Karen founded Vianney and teaches our elementary program. She also runs our evening tutoring program. She tailors her teaching to each child, and her knowledge of learning disabilities lets her identify and resolve students’ difficulties quickly.
Karen has over 20 years’ experience working with youth, most of whom had not been successful in the public school system, from group homes to ten years running her own homeschool. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Toronto and is an NILD-certified educational therapist.
Bethany Phillips
Vice-principal and head administrator
Bethany is our school’s engine, working behind the scenes to keep Vianney running smoothly.
Rebecca Eggert
High school teacher
Rebecca is our main high school teacher. She has a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Education, and guides high school students as they work through their independent courses each day.
