Claudine Graham
Claudine Graham was born and raised in Northern New Jersey. She attended Rider University and graduated with her bachelor’s degree in Mathematics and a minor in Computer Science. She spent her college years tutoring HS math and teaching a class to those who failed the math entrance exam. Even though her love of math goes back to the fourth grade, her knowledge of computer science led her into the IT field working as a Project Manager. Claudine and her husband, Dan, moved to South Florida in 2001 to escape the cold weather and snow. They are blessed with two amazing children, Caitlyn and Kyle. They decided to homeschool Kyle starting in 5th grade with Caitlyn joining the following year. It was through homeschooling that her love for teaching returned! In 2019, God led them to GHC, opening a door to teach math again. Claudine is passionate about teaching 5th – 10th-grade math, with a particular love for algebra and geometry. In her spare time, Claudine enjoys reading, camping, and spending time with her family.
Lori Hackbart
Two things I have always loved, children & teaching, led me to pursue a teaching certificate at the University of Colorado and to home-school my 2 daughters. Life-long learning is my passion, therefore I strive to inspire students to make learning a lifestyle. I have taught a variety of home school classes in coops while raising my daughters in Atlanta, I have taught group fitness since I was 15, and I have written curriculum & taught God's word in small groups through my church, as well as through Bible Study Fellowship. My English Literature degree has given me an insatiable hunger for reading and an appreciation for well-written classics but there is no book I love more than my Bible. I look forward to bringing my enthusiasm for God's Word and good books to your students!
Carrie Johnson
Carrie Johnson graduated from Palm Beach Atlantic University with a degree in Elementary Education and Middle School Social Science and taught in the Palm Beach County School System. When she had her first child, she came home to be with him, and within a few years, he was given a brother and two sisters. She began homeschooling when her first-born started kindergarten. With the two oldest now graduated, and pursuing engineering degrees, she looks back with gratitude that she had the opportunity to teach her children. Her favorite subject to teach is the word of God, whether it be through Writing, History, Literature, or a different subject altogether. Her desire is to help children excel in their academics while cultivating a passion to follow Christ and to know His Word. One of her favorite verses is “I have no greater joy than to hear that my [our] children are walking in the truth” (3 John 1:4).
Trista McMorrow
Raised in the community of Sarasota, Florida, I am a dedicated educator and committed mother with a diverse academic background. Graduating from the University of Florida with degrees in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Secondary Education, I established myself in the public school system, earning certifications to teach Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) mathematics classes at both middle and high school levels. Driven by a desire to prioritize the education and well-being of my four children, I transitioned from the public school classroom to embrace the fulfilling journey of homeschooling. Alongside being a proud wife and mom, my love for Jesus guides my values and actions. Passionate about lifelong learning, I create a dynamic and nurturing learning environment in our home, fostering curiosity and intellectual growth. Our family has called Jupiter, Florida, home for the past decade, contributing to the community fabric of this coastal town.
