Upper School Faculty
Baylor faculty members hail from California and Maine, as well as Alabama and Argentina, and many places in between. They have degrees in everything from classical studies to radiological technology. In fact, more than 70 percent of our teaching faculty hold advanced degrees, including 11 with a Ph.D. or the equivalent. Among them are former university professors, camp directors, archaeologists, lawyers, and retired professional athletes. Our most senior faculty member was appointed in 1963, and we also have ambitious and talented teachers who recently earned their undergraduate degrees.
The majority of our faculty have taught at Baylor for ten or more years, and they provide stability and consistency for our school community.
