Upper School Staff


Mr. Daniel Andonian

Mr. Andonian (or “Mr. A” as the children call him) is our Upper School History & Science teacher and he also assists in the office!  Mr. Andonian has been teaching since 1993 and has been with Glendale since 2014.

Mr. A. has this to say about working at Glendale, “One of the best parts of being a teacher is participating in the development of today’s youth.  To see a student learn from something that was directly taught to them, is the greatest feeling in the world.  Knowledge is POWER!”

A favorite quote of his:  “Whatever tears at us, whatever holds us down, and if nothing can be done, we’ll make the best of what’s around!”

In Mr. A’s spare time, he enjoys tennis, trivia, the beach, photography and his cats.


Mrs. Amanda Bailey

Upper School Bible & Upper School P.E.

Mr. Jim Foxworth

Mr. Foxworth started his journey wih Glendale in 2013. He is the Sixth Grade and Upper Biology teacher. Mr. Foxworth states, “What I like about working at Glendale is being part of an organization that shows and promotes Christian values in life and education and also the interaction between staff members and the enthusiasm of the students.”
 
Favorite Bible verse:  Psalm 1:3, “And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
 
When Mr. Foxworth is away from school, he enjoys shotgun target shooting, reading and studying.

Mrs. Henderson teaches 6th -11th Grade English, Language and Literature at Glendale Christian.  She has been a teacher for 26  years and at Glendale Christian since 1996.  The thing that  Mrs. Henderson enjoys most about her job is the opportunity to reach children and to help mold them into young adults of character and integrity.  She loves having the opportunity to help them know Jesus and become strong in their spiritual walk with Christ.  Mrs. Henderson likes NASCAR, reading and the beach!

 

Jeremiah 29:11 – ” For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”


Mr. Derek Meier

Upper School Math & Science
 
Mr. Meier has this to say, “The staff at Glendale is incredible and everyone here feels like family.  I’m excited for the opportunity to help children achieve their true potential both inside and outside of the classroom.”
 
Mr. Meier’s favorite Bible verses are:  James 1:21-24,

“Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.

 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.   Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.”

and John 20:31, “ But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”

Mr. Meier also has a favorite poem, “If”, by Rudyard Kipling

In his leisure time, Mr. Meier enjoys football, basketball, chess and most of all time spent with family.
