Katherine Chan started PCCS in 2015 as 1st/2nd grade Instructional Assistant. Mrs. Chan was drawn to PCCS through the beautiful and close-knit campus and community. She also saw that PCCS valued education outside of the classroom. Mrs. Chan graduated from Bradley University with a B.A. in Elementary Education and Spanish. She enjoys traveling and has visited many of the beautiful national/state parks across the United States. She loves being outdoors and admires the beauty in nature. Mrs. Chan really likes how PCCS is a school of choice and how students can learn in and out of the classroom. She loves nature walks and solo spots! She looks forward to experiencing them with her class and incorporating culture and diversity as well!  The ability to do what she loves most in a place with extremely friendly people helps her get out of bed every morning. Mrs. Chan’s favorite quote is, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” -Nelson Mandela
