Savannah Serle - Teaching Principal
Personal Profile
My Educational Background and Approach: I fell in love with teaching after working as a teacher's assistant in a multi grade classroom. I saw the progress students made each day and it motivated me to discover how to improve students' experiences at school. I believe the whole child approach is the only approach that will enable students to receive true education. Rooted and grounded in biblical beliefs and teachings, students are able to progress steadily and surely toward achieving their dreams and fulfilling their mission to spread the gospel throughout the world.
A little bit about me: I Graduated from Weimar University in May 2025 and now work as the teaching principal at Mentone SDA School. In my leisure time I enjoy cooking, reading, painting. For more energetic recreation I play pickleball and enjoy running. Students say I am fun and organized.

Personal Profile
Educational Background and Approach: I have wanted to be a teacher since I was in elementary school. God placed a passion for working with children on my heart, and I knew that teaching was my calling. I believe students learn best when they feel safe, valued, and supported, and when they can actively engage in learning through hands-on experiences and making real-world connections. Having grown up attending an Adventist school, I have a deep love for Christian education that helps students see God’s fingerprints in what they learn and shows them that they are uniquely created and deeply loved by Jesus.
A Little Bit About Me: I graduated from Western Governors University in 2024 and have been substitute teaching since 2022. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy baking, crocheting, and gardening. I also love spending time singing and playing guitar with my friends on my church’s praise team.
