Mrs. Kristen Abdo got her BA in liberal studies with a concentration in Mathematics from Sonoma State University. She taught in and supervised a tutoring program in Santa Rosa City schools for 15 years and then got to be a stay-at-home mom. She found Victory Christian Academy when it was time to register her daughter for Kindergarten, and is grateful that they chose VCA for their family's education and to now be able to teach in a Christ centered school. Mrs. Abdo's goal is to help students to develop their relationship with God and to fall in love with learning.

Mrs. Sara McLeod is honored to be part of the Victory Christian Academy Family. From elementary school on, she has always loved learning, and credits that to her amazing teachers. That love of learning as a child grew into a love for teaching as an adult. Her hope is to nurture a love for God and for education in all her students, helping them become who He designed them to be. Mrs. McLeod holds a BA in Liberal Arts and Science from Sonoma State University.

Mrs. DiSanto is very excited to be back in the classroom with the children.

She has a BA in English Literature and an MA in TESOL, both from Sonoma State University.

I was born in Peru, I studied midwifery, and I moved to Argentina to continue my studies, but God had other plans for me. I moved to the USA in 2005, the year in which I also gave my life to Christ. I met my husband, and we have a 13 year old son who attends VCA. When my son was little, he attended RVC, unfortunately, closing its doors, we had to move him to a public school, but we did not delay in returning because we are completely sure that his best education is grounded in Christ and ready for the world. I always wondered how I could help the school and offered to volunteer in Spanish in the classroom my son attended that year. God touched my life through this service, and today being part of VCA confirms my desire. I love music, knitting, preparing desserts. I like to talk and meet people and above all share how God changed my life and how he continues to work on me.
