Mrs. Roxanne Anthony is no stranger to Victory World Christian School. She was a former 3rd grade teacher who poured into the lives of her students. Mrs. Anthony was born and raised in Jamaica where she attended an all girls’ Catholic school until high school, when she relocated to Washington State. Although Mrs. Anthony had a Catholic upbringing, she was led to Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior as a college student. Mrs. Anthony acquired her Bachelor’s of Business Administration from Georgia Southern University.

She married in 2006 and lives in northern Gwinnett County.

Before coming to VWCS, she worked for The Home Depot, General Electric and Blue Cross/Blue Shield. Her heart however was to work in an environment where she could openly share the love of God with children and help grow a community of God centered warriors. God answered that prayer and brought her to VWCS. “I am excited to see how the lives of our young people are being groomed for God’s Kingdom.”

Holly Johnson, an administrative assistant for over 17 years, chose the educational environment so that she could help inspire children to learn. “There is nothing like working in a Christian school where teachers share their love of knowledge in addition to their love of Christ.

Her proudest accomplishment is raising two boys who have dedicated their life to Christ and actively serve their community.

Holly and her husband Dwayne have been married for 23 years. They reside in Grayson, GA.

I came to Atlanta via Brooklyn, New York but I am originally from Jamaica, W.I. I came to the US after high school and lived in Brooklyn from July of 1973 to December of 2003 when I moved to Atlanta, GA. While in New York I attended Christian Heritage Church where I taught Sunday school and worshipped for many years. I also worked as a computer operator while always longing to go back to college. At the age of forty I walked away from my job by faith and stared college. While there I decided to pursue a teaching degree. After completing college my church decided to start a school. And I was asked to work in the Pre-K department which I did. I worked with the two year olds, three year olds and the four year olds. This was a great experience and the Lord taught me a lot about my self and his children there. Then I moved to Atlanta where the Lord again opened the door for me to teach at the Suziki Child Care center. This was another great experience but it was not to be for long as the Lord would have me to attend Victory and learn of the school they were starting. Now I have found out that I have many passions. My first passion is the Lord and His work; next, my family which includes my mother, son, daughter and grandson. I also found out that I love water aerobics and walking.

My name is Doris Maliro and I'm happily married with two wonderful kids. I'm originally from Nigeria but I've mostly lived in Georgia,U.S.A. and in Moscow, Russia. I had a wonderful opportunity to school in Moscow and to experience their culture and speak their language. My first teaching experience was as an English conversational Teacher at The Japanese Embassy School in Moscow, Russia. I love teaching here at VWCS in that not only can I help my students excel academically; share my talents and cultural experiences, but most importantly to share with them the ways of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I was born and raised in Chicago, IL and felt the call from God to relocate to Georgia. I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior at a young age and I strive daily to serve him with all of my heart. I served in various ministries at Wheaton Christian Center, my home church, including the music ministry, audio department, and children’s ministry. I was very active in activities throughout high school and college. I played varsity basketball, softball, and sang in the women’s chorale. I was a mentor for underclassmen. I graduated from Wheaton College in 2004 with a BA in Communications. I discovered my passion for teaching while working as a nanny for family friends. As I began working with the young children, I experienced the joys of watching children learn. I pursued teaching through a home based program where I taught preschool through first grade students. Due to the success that I experienced while teaching students in my home, I was invited to be a part of the teaching staff at Carol Stream Christian Academy, a private school that was housed at my home church. I taught pre-school from 2006-2008 school years where I received numerous accolades and had excellent rapport with administration, co-workers, parents, and the children. I am excited to be a part of the VWCS family and I look forward to the blessings that God has in store for each and every one of us.

I was born and raised in a small upstate NY town by the name of Groton, NY. When I say small, I mean small-3600 people total where everyone knew everyone else. After leaving home for college, my next forty plus years would center around cozy small town America life. Therefore, some of my favorite activities center on the great outdoors- walking in the fresh air, hiking whenever possible and sitting quietly by any body of water available. Nature is my passion and along with that reading Kingdom based books that inspire change! The call of teaching on my life was evident since my early elementary years when I lined up my dolls and distributed papers and pencils and taught by the hour in my bedroom. Those poor neighborhood children were constantly being herded onto my drive-way where I would plan and execute plays, productions and dance recitals. After a dramatic salvation experience alone with my Jesus in a hotel room, there was a long spell where my teaching was focused in Children’s Church and corporate America. One day when God, in His infinite wisdom and sense of humor, moved this country girl to Atlanta where I would learn about a dream School at VWC. It seemed like an impossible dream fro me at the age of 55 but the Lord turned it into reality. Here I am four years later, still leaning on Jesus and learning more than I could ever imagine from wonderful six & seven year olds, their parents and the Administration and staff of VWCS. In short, I am eternally grateful to my wonderful Lord-to be sure all things are possible with Him!

Emmain Briley was raised in the small city of Wisconsin Dells, WI that multiplies by thousands in the summer due to tourism. She attended a Lutheran Missouri Synod school through sixth grade in a class of just two. She thrived under the dedication of her Christian teachers who aligned and modeled their lives after Christ. Junior high and high school found her participating and excelling in volleyball, basketball, softball, track, and also playing the violin and piano. Emmain’s parents, aunt, uncle, and cousin inspired her decision to become a teacher as they set positive examples as teachers themselves. She earned her Early Childhood Education degree from the University of Wisconsin Stout in 1998 and her Masters of Education in Instructional Technology from Cardinal Stritch University in 2008. Throughout her eleven years of teaching experience, one of Mrs. Briley’s strongest assets is her classroom management skills. She possesses a firm, yet very gentle manner. Mrs. Briley expects good behavior and strives to help her students work toward solving their own problems by utilizing Jesus as a reference and to demonstrate how to communicate effectively. Mrs. Briley’s life foundation has been built on grace alone, through faith alone, based on scripture alone. Jesus gave His life to give her eternal life. She prays daily for guidance and looks for the many multi-layered lessons scripture reveals. Mrs. Briley looks forward to assisting her students in building their lives on the firm foundation of God’s word to lead Christ centered lives. Getting married a short time ago brought her to the Atlanta metropolitan area. Her husband works for an attorney services company in Atlanta. Together they enjoy worshipping, traveling, baking, boating, and taking evening walks.

I am a GA certified teacher and have been teaching since 1954, with a few years out for my children and to care for a bed-ridden husband. I retired, after 30 years teaching, from the GA Public Schools in 1988. Since then I have substituted and taught in private Christian Schools. When I began teaching we used chalk and chalk boards and I often say I must have gotten chalk dust in my veins because when Fall comes I feel I must get back into the class room. I have four children and seven grandchildren, but through the years I have gained many other children and many memories. God is good!!!

Joyce Elizabeth McIntyre Stewart considers it an honor to say that she is a daughter of the Most High God and that Jesus is her Savior and Lord.
