Are the teachers at Agia Sophia certified to teach in the state of Oregon?
Although some of our teachers are state certified, state certification is not a requirement for employment at our school. We are a different kind of academic institution with a different set of standards for our teachers. We generally require each of our teachers to possess a bachelors degree, to be an active and faithful Orthodox Christian, to have a true love for teaching children, to be committed to the Classical model of education, and finally to have a love of learning and a passion for their subjects. All of our teachers are specifically trained in Classical and Orthodox Christian education methods.
