Hello,
My name is Greg Smith. I have a B.A. from Palm Beach Atlantic University and a Masters from Southwestern Seminary in Texas. The emphasis in both degrees was biblical languages and theology. I have taught in both private and public institutions, with the most recent being at the local college level. There, my classes were Old Testament and New Testament, World Religions (Eastern & Western) Philosophy, and Ethics.
Personally, I have been married 41 years and my wife and I have 5 children. We homeschooled all of them through High School. Three of them obtained college degrees and the others have careers in various businesses. As stated previously, my professional experiences in teaching were both in private and public institutions in addition to homeschooling. My teaching style seeks to incorporate and bring out the best of all three. I look forward to the exciting opportunity to teach at our newest school.
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.
