Catherine brings warmth and creativity to the IVs teaching team at City and Country School. With a Master's in Early Childhood Education from Bank Street College and background in theater, she blends musicality and imagination into her thoughtful approach with children. Catherine's own childhood summers were spent running through sprinklers with juice pops—simple joys she values in working with young learners. She looks forward to creating a relaxed summer environment where IIs and IIIs can explore, create, and discover at their own pace.

Hannah has been a versatile presence at City and Country School for over six years, working with children across the IIs, IIIs, and VIs as an associate teacher. Her deep familiarity with the school's rhythms and philosophy comes from experience in many different roles throughout the building. Hannah's passion for arts and crafts shines through her camp mural projects and creative approach to learning. She's eager to connect with your IIs and IIIs in the relaxed atmosphere of summer, where she can discover the unique artistic spark each child brings.

Her Bachelor's degree in Health Science informs her holistic approach to early childhood education.

A quick change into dry clothes followed by a nutritious school-provided snack to power up campers for the exciting activities ahead.
10:15 a.m. puts a song in our hearts,
