The key to any great education is, as we all know,  the teacher.  The West Sound criteria for selection of teachers includes far more than just educational and work credentials. We choose teachers for their human qualities:  depth of life experience, professional background, skill in the tools of communication, international exposure, and more than anything else their passion to teach.

The WSA faculty is dedicated to the school mission.  They demonstrate a "high level of scholarship and artistic expression" and know from their own experience that curiosity is a powerful component of learning.  With our teachers, students acquire skills through inquiry, enjoying direct experiences with curriculum while also finding the support for new interests and individual passions.  As part of a close-knit community, they develop strong, respectful relationships with teachers and, together, forge a love for life-long learning.
