Mrs. Borden comes to Live Oak from Great Hearts Northern Oaks and is excited to build the newest Great Hearts community from the ground up. After four years in a first-grade classroom, she is more than ready to welcome your Owls and Owlets!

 Mrs. Borden graduated from Brigham Young University-Idaho where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Sociology with a minor in Family Studies, and Child Development. Her time in the sociology department exposed her to the beauty of Socratic teaching, and she recognizes the importance of a classical education’s role in creating life-long learners. 

 As a native Texan, and San Antonio resident for the past decade, she feels there are no truer words than “there’s no place like home”. When out of the classroom she is keeping up with her two busy boys. She loves time with her family, antiquing, queso-testing, singing like no one is listening, dancing like no one is watching, and roller skating her heart out. Mrs. Borden also has a weakness for musicals, and enjoys reading classics by Jane Austen, R.D. Blackmore, and C.S. Lewis. All hobbies aside, she is thrilled to start this new adventure!
