Meet Our Teachers & Staff

“The children are a blessing to me and to this school.”

Meet Our Teachers & Staff

Our teachers and staff make our school what it is. They are committed, caring individuals who nurture and mentor our students. They model what it means to live life as a servant of Jesus Christ. They cultivate character inside and outside of the classroom. We invite you to get to know the teachers and staff who will be caring for your children by reading about them below.

Grades 1-4 Teacher

Mrs. Priscilla Gonzalez

Mrs. Gonzalez graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education from Pennsylvania State University. She has a passion for teaching and educating children, especially the youth. She currently lives with her husband and two children in the Lehigh Valley where they have been serving as directors for their local Pathfinders and Adventurers clubs for the past 6 years.

“As the Teacher of WCS, I want to ensure that every child not only get a high quality education but that, most importantly, they have a personal encounter with Jesus Christ.”

Kindergarten Teacher

Mrs. Schwanda Morgan

Mrs. Morgan began her teaching career four years ago at Whitehall Christian Elementary, teaching the PreK- Kindergarten class. She is currently attending Penn Foster College to obtain her degree in Early Childhood Education. Most importantly she enjoys having her students interact with nature.

“I believe that through the creations of God, children are able to learn to see in nature an expression of the love and the wisdom of God. I am truly passionate about teaching little hearts and minds, with so much love! I also take great pride in sharing the love of Jesus with his greatest treasure...little children!”

Librarian

Mrs. Doris Benson

Doris has taught in both private and public school settings in various levels and subjects including Algebra, PE, Biology and self-contained classrooms from 2nd through 10thGrades. Before moving to Pennsylvania, she completely overhauled and automated a private school library in New Jersey, and hopes someday to fully automate the Library/Media Center at Whitehall Christian School.

“My philosophy on traditional books vs. e-books is that, although both have their places, and students have a lot to gain from both of these reading tools, nothing can replace the tactile experience of handling a traditional book, turning its pages, or sharing it with a friend.”
