Tell us about you and your family.
I love my family so much and am very grateful to have them near me! My mom is named Mary Burton and my dad is Peter Burton. I have two siblings, one older sister named Danielle and a younger brother named David. I’m also very fortunate to live close to both my grandmother (Grams) and grandfather.
Tell us something we might be surprised to know about you:
I am a licensed cosmetologist!
Describe how you feel God has called you to your particular career path:

I loved subbing at the Lower Campus – but felt like it was time for me to try a job outside of the classroom. I applied at the Upper Campus for one of their job openings – and ended up with a completely different job. The administration fit together several responsibilities to create a full-time position for me. Everyone I talk to (and myself), agree that God was working behind the scenes to lead me to this position. I’m very thankful!

What attracted you to WCCS?
I attended 3k here a loooooong time ago! Since then my aunt, Abby McCain, started working here. She helped me get an ESC job and I’ve loved it here ever since.
 
In what particular ways do you hope to shape the learning or spiritual experience of our students here at WCCS?
I hope to shape their experience by allowing students to experience everyday situations and learn how to approach them with a Christian mindset.
The WCCS mission statement is “educating students to bless our world as disciples of Jesus Christ”. How do you hope to accomplish this as a faculty/staff member?
By being an example to the kids and those around me.
What is your biggest desire for each student that walks in to your office or classroom?
My biggest desire is to make sure they feel heard, supported, and respected.
