Meet the Team
Our staff are certified in First Aid, CPR, Communicable Disease, Vision Screening and Child Abuse and Neglect. Each teacher is consistent with praise and encouragement. They work with children on practice and repetition.

TKK Director
Jessica Newman
Mrs. Newman is going into her fourth year at TKK. She started with the K-3 class and happily served there for 2 years. In her third year, she was recommended for Director by previous administration, prayerfully accepted, and is in her second year as director. Mrs. Newman is a wife of 7 years and mother of 3. She believes the stewarding of the next generation is so important because the Bible says, "the people that do know their God shall be strong and do exploits." Mrs. Newman believes that children are never too young to learn the truth and gets rewarded daily when she sees a child praying, or praising God or learning something new they have been working towards.

K-3 Teacher
Lonica Parrott
Mrs. Parrott is in her third year with us as our K-3 teacher. She is a wife of 13 years and mother of 6. We are blessed by her and her husband who serve in multiple ministries in our church. She is also the lead over our children's choir. Mrs. Parrot often says she loves her job and that it feels like she's coming home. One of her favorite things working with preschoolers is all the amazing conversations she gets to have everyday.

K-4 Teacher
Alicia Bull
Mrs. Bull is in her second year at TKK working with our 4 and 5 year olds. She believes every child is a precious gift from God, created with unique talents, abilities, and endless potential. She strives to create a classroom where little minds are encouraged to explore, little hearts are filled with kindness, and learning comes alive through laughter, creativity, and hands on experience. Her greatest joy as an educator is helping children build confidence, develop friendships, discover new abilities, and grow in their understanding of God's love.

Assistant Teacher
Mckenzie Gaines
Miss Mckenzie comes to us as a senior at Kent State University in Deaf education. We are blessed to have her as a morning Greeter at TKK and also as an assistant teacher at both FACCS and TKK. She has a passion for helping children grow into not only helpful members of their families, but also society. She loves to ignite a fire for learning!

Teacher - Before/Aftercare
Bria Lee
Miss Bria comes to us as a sophomore at Kent State University majoring in Air Traffic and Airspace management. She is originally from Cincinnati and loves to cook and bake in her free time. Miss Bria has worked with a variety of children at summer camps and also serves in our kids ministry within our church. Fun fact: Miss Bria plays the bass guitar, and also acts as assistant soccer coach to our FAC soccer program. She has truly been a blessing assisting at both FAC and TKK.
