About Sarah Sander

Mrs. Sander has over 20 years of experience teaching in public and private Christian schools, and she homeschooled her own son before joining the faculty at Knox Classical School. Teaching in each of these contexts has made her passionate about partnering with parents to help them give their child the best education possible, and it’s convinced her of the eternal value of a Christian education. 

Mrs. Sander earned her Bachelor of Arts in English Literature from Northwest University and her Master of Arts in Secondary Education from National Louis University. Since then, she’s taught a variety of subjects to students grades K—8, gaining outstanding experience in using different techniques to maximize each student’s learning and cultivating an orderly and God-glorifying classroom culture. 

Mrs. Sander has been recognized repeatedly for her stellar performance in the classroom, especially through her efforts to communicate clearly and graciously with students, parents, team members, and administrators. She’s training to become a certified biblical counselor and is passionate about the transformative power of Scripture. 

Mrs. Sander desires to guide our kindergarteners in developing not only as excellent students but more importantly as faithful followers of Jesus. She delights in sharing her love of great stories and good books, and stirring up a passion in our kindergarteners to keep learning throughout their lives. She and her family attend Providence Community Church.
