​My name is Lora Stanley, and I am the Administrator for Haven Academy. I have a B.S.E. in Elementary Education from Emporia State University and a M.S.E. in Educational Administration from Fort Hays State University. I have taught both 1st and 2nd grades at Bennington and Abilene. My husband, Darren, and I have 4 children who are all married and (almost) 8 grandkids! At the end of the 2023-2024 school year, I had resigned from teaching, but God had other plans for me as I was prompted to apply for this position. I am excited to use the gifts and talents that God has given me to serve the children and families of Haven Academy!

I am excited and blessed to join Haven Academy! I graduated from WSU with a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education and have almost 10 years of Christian education teaching experience. I believe that every child is uniquely created by God with a purpose and it is my joy to help them grow academically, socially, and spiritually. My passion is helping children build confidence, curiosity, and a love for learning in a safe and caring environment. I look forward to partnering with families for a wonderful year of learning, growth, and fun! I am married and have three amazing children and two grandchildren. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, taking my two dogs for walks, and being outdoors.

My name is Lynette Bosch. I received my Bachelor's in Elementary Education at Sterling College. Over the years, I have taught a variety of grade levels both here and abroad, including time teaching English to college students in China. 

​

In my free time, I can be found either at church teaching Bible Study and signing on the worship team, or at home watching movies with my dog, Zuko!

My name is Megan Beckley. I received my Masters in Teaching from Kansas State University. This will be my 5th year teaching, and before that I was a para-educator for four years. I’m excited and blessed to be teaching 2nd and 3rd grade at Haven Academy! I enjoy teaching and how the students soak it all in, and for their love of learning.

I have an amazing daughter Terra. She enjoys painting, doing crafts, and enjoys listening to stories. I’m looking forward to an amazing year together at Haven Academy!

​Hi! My name is Olivia Ingram. Christian education is my passion, and I have experience teaching both locally and abroad. Before coming to Haven Academy, I taught at an international school in Ibadan, Nigeria. I have my Bachelor’s in Education from Central Christian College of Kansas in McPherson. I love working with young people and seeing their curiosity and intelligence blossom. When I am not teaching, I like to spend time involved in my home church or relaxing at home with my two cats. Some of my hobbies include crafts, reading, and watching movies. I am thrilled to be a part of Haven Academy, and I look forward to the good work God will do through this school!

Hello! My name is Lindsey Mueting and I am honored to be the secretary - and - teach the music class here at Haven. With a minor in music from Kansas State University and 13 years in youth development extension education, I love the opportunity to teach and impact youth. I currently am a Kindermusik Instructor at Joyful Noise Studios and have the opportunity to teach other STEM related classes and camps through the studio and playhouse.  My biggest passions are music and theatre. But I love my time in my home bakery and teaching baking classes! I am currently the Christian Education Chair at my church and enjoy traveling and spending time with my husband and family of 5 kids, two horses and two dogs!

My name is Emily Irvin, and I'm a Christian wife, mom of four, and nurse. I love the opportunity Haven Academy gives my family to spend more time together while still having quality Christian teachers and a classroom experience. In elementary school, I had the privilege of attending a hybrid school, and I'm so grateful my children can have the same type of education!​​​I am passionate about finding ways for Haven to meet the needs of families seeking flexible alternative education. I arrange specialized learning opportunities for the students of Haven Academy by involving local organizations that promote fun, hands-on education that will stick with our students long-term!

While most people in Salina probably know me as Dr. Irvin, the Haven Academy students know me better as "Dr. Science". I stop by to teach science classes when Haven is in need of some mad science (or regular science too).  I'm a family medicine doctor who graduated from the University of Kansas, and current seminary student with hopes of planting more churches!  Why would this crazy guy take on all that you ask?  Well if you hadn't gathered from the picture above, I am a bit "mad".  More than that, I am fiercely committed to the importance of solid Christian education and the importance of raising generations of children who not only exist in the world but will be equipped to go out and change it for the better!
