My name is Stephanie Crabtree and I am a wife to a wonderful husband, mom to four precious boys on earth and twin girls in heaven, and a nurse with 13 years of experience. I currently work part-time as a hospice nurse (where I get to show compassion and love to people at the end of their life), and part-time in critical care transport (where I get the adrenaline rush of thinking critically to intervene when they are in a life threatening situation). I started out my career as a Certified Nursing Assistant and worked while attending Southwestern community College. I graduated with an Associates Degree in Nursing and became a Registered Nurse. I then attended Western Carolina University and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Nursing. I have mostly worked in critical care for my career, and over the past 13 years I have continued to learn and grow and hold multiple certifications specific to Emergency medicine and Air Medical Transport. I love science and how it verifies the truth of the Bible. I have a passion for learning, studying, teaching and helping others grow in understanding of the Bible and God’s beautiful creation.
Litchfield Christian School has been such a beautiful blessing to our family. LCS is a Christ-centered school that challenges students academically, nurtures their creativity, promotes a positive learning environment, and contributes to their spiritual growth. LCS is very supportive, and they encourage their students and their families. Our daughter came into LCS completely broken and empty. Public school had taken a drastic toll on her mental health. She had pleaded with us for over a year to homeschool her. We were at a loss. Our daughter is a very social person, and we knew she needed more. We decided to check out LCS as an alternative. From the very moment we stepped inside LCS, we could see and feel the genuine love. EVERYONE felt as if they belonged. Before our day of observing was over, she had asked if she could please come to LCS. She was smiling and said this place is my kind of place. It's definitely been just that!
Today she is thriving, and she is truly enjoying herself. She loves to go to school, and she loves all of the teachers. She has made good friends and is blossoming in all areas of life. She's even started singing on stage during chapel. This has been the best decision we could have ever made as parents for our daughter. We are incredibly thankful for this opportunity in our hometown, and we truly appreciate that LCS offers grades K-12. How blessed we are to be a part of Litchfield Christian School. We look forward to many more amazing years here.
