A Matter of Perspective....

Carrie Church is an Alaskan transplant. Growing up in the northern state, she met her husband Kynan and they were transferred to Michigan for employment. Kynan is an engineer and was later transferred to Italy, and then back to Michigan. Wanting to be near family, they eventually headed back west. In 2007 they settled in Corbett, and plan to be here for the long haul. Carrie has been a teacher for 16 years and appreciates getting to teach in the same district that she lives in. All three of her own children attend school in Corbett and are also involved with Scouts and Corbett Children's Theatre. A son and two daughters range in age from 7-12 years. Carrie said that teaching at the middle school is amazing with the synergy that they have going, and loves the fact that all of the staff for all of the schools get along so well. Having taught in two countries and five different buildings, Carrie has seen how Corbett compares to other schools. She says Corbett is unique in how they approach the students and work with them. When thinking of the best way to describe the education given and received here, she says "top quality." Living on a somewhat quiet road with her family, she is amazed at the different views she has from different locations of their porch. In hearing her describe the sights, it is obvious, she feels quite settled.
