He is eager to see students grounded in God's Word, armed with Truth and Virtue, and ready to impact the world for Christ. It is Dan's great privilege to serve at Veritas, working alongside Christian families and teachers to train up the next generation. His desire is that students graduate with wisdom, character, and an unshakable Christian worldview. He and all the teachers at Veritas pursue this desire for academic excellence and spiritual vitality with grace, wisdom, and love.
