Hello there and God Bless

My name is Yahaira Fernandez and I am the VPK teacher here at Grace Education Academy. I am so excited to be part of this amazing place. God is truly working here and you can see His mighty presence in the eyes of the students and in the hearts of the staff. The staff is so supportive here and they not only have welcomed me as a teacher but my children as well. This is a place like no other school that I know. This school accepts all students. This is a full inclusive school and we welcome every child no matter what. Teachers are supported  by administration and each classroom has a teacher assistant and a behaviorist !

I just want to thank God for all that He is providing for me, my children and this school.

Ms. Olga Chamorro- Executive Office Manager -Main Campus

Hello, my name is Mirna Gonzalez, Executive Office Manager of Grace Education Academy. I am one of 4 children. My family is from Puerto Rico, and I have a total of 6 nieces and nephews and I have 4 young women, 1 young man, 9 nieces and nephews and 2 great grandchildren that I have adopted as my family. New York was my home for 61 years, born and raised in the Bronx, or as we say the Boogie down Bronx. I worked in private schools for more than 24 years. My passion is working with schools that have a mission that rings true to my soul. No child should be left behind. I have been in Florida for 2 years. I heard about Grace Education from a church friend. While I

was searching for the right job to come along, I worked at a Health Facility not too far from Grace Education Academy. I learned a lot about the health industry, but my passion was to work in a school setting.

I am honored to work with loving kind individuals that care for all types of children. In my heart I believe God wanted me here. My goal for the front office is to make sure it runs as smoothly as possible, to alleviate the workload on Dr. Tubbs and Pastor Rico as much as I can. With my experience working in private schools, I can be of great assistance in setting policy and procedures. Making sure records are being maintained and updated regularly. It is a blessing to be working here and I thank God every day!

John 3:16: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Hello and God Bless

My name is Heidy Perez. I am going on my third year with Grace Education. During my first year,  I was as an assistant to Mrs. Ayuso in the Kindergarten Classroom. Last year, I began teaching first grade and attending St. Leo's where I am earning my Bachelor's degree in elementary education. As you can see, I have three children and I am married to the love of my life, George. I have years of experience working with children whether at church or in an educational setting. Children are my passion and I am so thankful that God has given me this opportunity to work in a school where ALL children are accepted.

Mrs. Tiffany Middleton 5th grade long term Substitute Teacher


 Hello! My name is Macie Rodriguez. This will be my first year teaching at Grace Education Academy and I could not be more excited! I studied elementary education at the University of South Florida and it has always been a dream of mine to be a fourth-grade teacher! I am from Tampa Florida but we just recently moved to Brooksville. In addition to my education, I have been a nanny for 10 years and a health and wellness coach for 5 years! I am so excited to be starting my teaching career here at Grace Education Academy as I believe the standards and other staff are right up my alley. The opportunity to work at a school where all children are accepted is the most amazing thing I could have asked for. I have always had a passion for people with disabilities, a passion to teach children, and a passion for God so this is perfect! I am really looking forward to getting to know everyone and many memories!

My name is Tiffany Middleton, and I am third year teacher at Grace Education Academy. I have been

happily married for 10 years with five children, three of which attend Grace Education Academy. Two of

my children have been diagnosed with different disabilities which has allowed me to learn more and

deviate from traditional teaching methods to some that are more effective and enjoyable for everyone.

Currently, I am attending Grand Canyon University to complete my degree in Childhood Education with

an emphasis in STEM. I am so excited to be teaching science this year to secondary students. My favorite

science subjects are Biology and Anatomy and Physiology. I absolutely love the life that God has created

and the study of it amazes me. Before becoming a teacher at Grace Education Academy, I was a long-

term substitute teacher at West Hernando Middle School. This changed my career choice from the

medical field to Education and I have been blessed since I made the change. I hope that I am able to

empower students to be the best that they can be as an individual and through Christ.

Mrs. Priscilla Hall, Secondary Language Arts Teacher & Special Ed

My name is Priscilla Hall. I am married with two beautiful daughters in college. We are a strong Christian family that centers our lives around the teachings of Christ and following the word of God. 

  I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology/ Pre-Med from the University of Central Florida in 1998. I had dreams of becoming an MD in Pediatric Psychiatric Research.  I didn’t realize at the time that my dream would be costly. Upon this realization, I changed my field and went back to school for Perioperative Nursing at National University in Indianapolis, IN. I stayed in the medical field for many years working in ambulatory surgical centers and ophthalmic offices. After living in very cold Indiana for many years, I returned home to Florida with my family in tow. I took a job working for Lake County Schools as a long-term substitute teacher in a Special Needs Unit. I finally got to put my original degree to good use. I fell in love with teaching. I had the most amazing students! My contract with Lake County Schools ended. My family and I decided that we wanted a farm so we moved to Pasco County, where we have a small family farm. I signed a teaching contract with Pasco County to teach a self-contained special needs class at Hudson High School. I also returned to school (my alma mater) The University of Central Florida, earning my Master’s in Higher Needs Education with a focus on Learning Strategies and Curriculum design. I am currently in pursuit of my Doctorate in Higher Needs Education. I am also the Founder and Director of The Blue Bulb Foundation. BBF is a nonprofit organization that continues educational services through the summer months for special needs students that require a more rigorous educational schedule. I believe that all children should have every opportunity to succeed.  

 Due to my strong faith and fortified belief in teaching our future with a Christian sense, I left public education and decided to teach in the private sector. I am very blessed to have been offered a teaching position at Grace Education Academy. Having the freedom to teach a Christ-centered curriculum and being able to be open about my faith is truly a blessing in life.

Gracias Jesus Cristo
