My name is Tiffany Berg and I’m excited about the opportunity to be a part of Franklin Christian School. My husband, Josh, and I have been married almost 22 years. We have 5 boys and have been foster parents for many years. I got my bachelors degree in education from Johnson Bible College, now Johnson University, in Knoxville, Tennessee in 2004. I taught in the public schools for 2 years before our first son was born and I’ve stayed home ever since. I’ve homeschooled for 15 years and have now graduated our 2 oldest boys. While homeschooling, I’ve taught co-op classes and with Classical Conversations for the last 8 years. I knew I wanted to be a teacher at a very young age and always enjoyed school as a kid. I get excited when I see a child understanding something for the first time. I want to instill the love of learning and encourage curiosity in my classroom.
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.
