After teaching for seven years in the French public school system, Philippine joined the LabSchool in 2019, just as the school's second class was opening. She taught and thrived in the lower elementary grades. She believes the greatest strength of the school is the co-teaching model with English-speaking colleagues, which has allowed her to grow both professionally and personally.

This year, Philippine is excited to take on the role of Assistant Principal for the elementary school. She has a deep understanding of the school, its values, and its philosophy. Her experience, along with the strong relationships she has built with students, families, and the team, will be invaluable assets in combining continuity and momentum for the years ahead.
