UU. con m\u00e1s de una d\u00e9cada de servicio. Su camino hacia la educaci\u00f3n ha sido de todo menos convencional. Despu\u00e9s de su carrera militar, trabaj\u00f3 en la educaci\u00f3n superior, operaciones de distritos y administraci\u00f3n de subvenciones, hasta que finalmente obtuvo su doctorado en educaci\u00f3n. En el transcurso de este camino, descubri\u00f3 que su verdadera vocaci\u00f3n estaba en el aula y en el liderazgo escolar. Cuando conoci\u00f3 la Academia Cl\u00e1sica Estadounidense Rutherford, encontr\u00f3 una escuela cuya misi\u00f3n de verdad, virtud y excelencia acad\u00e9mica coincide con todo lo que \u00e9l cree que debe ser la educaci\u00f3n. Es un honor para \u00e9l aportar su experiencia en liderazgo, operaciones e instrucci\u00f3n para servir a esta comunidad como subdirector escolar.<\/p><p><b>Por qu\u00e9 le encanta trabajar en una escuela de Hillsdale:<\/b><\/p><p>Le encanta que una educaci\u00f3n cl\u00e1sica forme a la persona en su totalidad, no solo a la mente. Todos los d\u00edas tiene la oportunidad de trabajar junto a docentes y familias dedicados que creen que sus alumnos son capaces de lograr grandes cosas, y que les exigen un nivel acorde con su potencial. Ver a los estudiantes lidiar con grandes libros, dominar contenidos dif\u00edciles y crecer en car\u00e1cter le recuerda por qu\u00e9 este trabajo es importante.<\/p><p><b>Cita Cl\u00e1sica Favorita:<\/b><\/p><p>\u201cEl objeto de la educaci\u00f3n es ense\u00f1arnos a amar lo que es bello.\u201d \u2014 Plat\u00f3n<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-48f8ead e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"48f8ead\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fbeb51c elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"fbeb51c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9dc5580 elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-items-middle\" data-id=\"9dc5580\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cd7192f\" data-id=\"cd7192f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a80555f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a80555f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Una educaci\u00f3n cl\u00e1sica americana<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c924315 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c924315\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"p1\">Nuestro plan de estudios hace especial hincapi\u00e9 en el lenguaje, las asignaturas ricas en contenido, una s\u00f3lida base de conocimientos fundamentales y una exploraci\u00f3n en profundidad del legado hist\u00f3rico, literario y cient\u00edfico tanto de Estados Unidos como de la civilizaci\u00f3n occidental.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c402634 elementor-widget elementor-widget-jkit_button\" data-id=\"c402634\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"jkit_button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div  class=\"jeg-elementor-kit jkit-button  icon-position-before jeg_module___6aa646acde475\" ><a href=\"https:\/\/rutherfordclassical.org\/es\/careers\/\" class=\"jkit-button-wrapper\" target=\"_blank\">SOLICITAR AHORA<\/a><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Thomas Covington Assistant Head of School Dr. Thomas Covington is a husband, uncle, and proud U.S. Army veteran with more than a decade of service.
