Schoolhouse Director

Casey is the Schoolhouse Director of WonderHere Greenville. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and brings experience from private and public education, homeschool support, and innovative learning environments. Throughout her career, she has partnered with children and families across a variety of educational settings, developing a passion for creating personalized learning experiences that honor the whole child. Since joining WonderHere in 2025, Casey has helped lead the growth and development of the Anderson schoolhouse through instructional leadership, program development, and family partnership.

Casey is passionate about preserving childhood through play-based, project-based, and nature-rich learning. She believes every child deserves an education that nurtures curiosity, creativity, confidence, and a genuine love of learning. She enjoys partnering with families and educators to create an environment where every child is known, encouraged, and empowered to grow at their own pace. As Schoolhouse Director, she oversees daily operations, mentors instructors, and helps shape meaningful learning experiences that honor each child’s unique strengths and interests.

When she’s not at WonderHere, Casey loves spending time with her husband, Chris, and their two kids, making memories and laughing through life’s everyday moments with family and friends. She enjoys getting lost in a good book, never passes up a good “Okay…hear me out…” conversation, and is always dreaming up new ways to make WonderHere in SC an even more beautiful and meaningful place to learn and grow. If you’ve spent much time around Casey, you’ve probably been on the receiving end of a random “Did you know…?” fun fact—because she believes curiosity is contagious, relationships matter most, and wonder is where the best learning begins.
