Faculty & Staff Testimonies

"One of the main reasons I choose to work at Caprock Academy is the incredible sense of community and support between our staff and families. From day one, I felt welcomed into an environment where every role is deeply valued, and the collective focus is on creating the best opportunities for our students. Working here means being part of something bigger—a family that celebrates and uplifts one another, whether it’s through collaboration with colleagues, shared moments with students, or the unwavering support from parents. The bonds we form and the shared commitment to excellence make Caprock Academy more than just a workplace—it’s a place where I truly feel I belong and can make a difference." - Libby Sorensen, Executive Assistant to the Head of School

“Coming into a school mid-year is never easy. Caprock accepted me with open arms and took great care to make me a part of the family. That care extends to each individual student so much more than I ever thought possible in a school. Every day, we work to make sure these students have room to learn and grow. We go above and beyond for them, and they do the same for us. This is not just a school, it’s a place where we can all find the opportunity to be the best we can be.” - Cecelia VanderWoude, High School Science

“I work at Caprock Academy because the school uses a classical curriculum. We have the honor of teaching the great books to each new generation coming up.” - Howard Butcher, High School Dean

“A Caprock student is a virtuous child, who has developed and applied the work ethic necessary to learn good and beautiful things. Students graduating from classical schools leave with a deep sense of their role within the world. They leave understanding how they can shape for themselves a truly good life. Not only that, but they leave with skills and plenty of grit that will serve them for a lifetime. This is why I teach here; I want to be a part of creating these individuals that will help our world be a better place to live in.” - Heidi Vidmar, 3rd Grade Teacher

"I am here for the learners: full stop. My personal pedagogy relies upon learners sharing their perspectives, stories, and experiences; Caprock Academy gives me the freedom and support to be able to do so. Our high school literary curriculum supplies our learners with a vast, insightful, and rich foundation to confidently approach and appreciate their lives and learning when they move on." - Torin Perrett, High School English

“There are so many things that I love about our school, one of them being the curriculum. I love the classics and the fact that we use them to educate our students. I am here because I love working with kids and the variety that each day brings. We are a classical school and we take pride in the fact that we have a 100% graduation rate and most of our students go on to higher education of some kind.” - Sarah McBroom, School Counselor
