Brittany Thibodeau
Second Grade Teacher
Brittany Thibodeau is thrilled to join American Classical Academy Rutherford as a second grade teacher.
Originally from Nevada, Brittany now proudly calls Tennessee home, having been drawn to its charm and community over the past several years. She earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and brings with her a breadth of teaching experience across 3rd, 5th, and 6th grades, as well as specialized instruction in Explicit Phonics.
For the past six years, Brittany has devoted herself to homeschooling her own children – a journey sparked by her deep passion for classical education. Now, she returns to the classroom with renewed purpose and enthusiasm.
Brittany has long been inspired by the principles of classical education, which emphasize the cultivation of wisdom and virtue through meaningful literature, thoughtful dialogue, and the pursuit of truth. She deeply values ACAR’s mission to nurture critical thinkers guided by what is good, true, and beautiful.
