Angel Schrader, Assistant Head of School

Angel grew up in Chattanooga, TN and is an alumna of Girls Preparatory School. She pursued her passion for teaching at Elon University, earning a degree in Elementary Education. Angel began her teaching career in North Carolina where she taught 1st grade for 2 years. After moving back to Chattanooga, she spent 13 years in the public school system teaching in the lower grades. For the past 5 years, Angel has loved teaching Kindergarten at Brainerd Baptist. Her 20 years of hands-on teaching experience have provided her with a deep understanding of student’s needs, effective teaching strategies, and an understanding of the challenges teachers and students face. Angel is excited to use these skills as she steps into a new role as the Assistant Head of School for the 2024-2025 school year!

Angel and her husband Todd have two children, Elizabeth Grace (13) and Charlie (11). They both began their BBS careers in K3 and are BBS graduates! Elizabeth Grace is in 8th grade at GPS and Charlie will be in 6th grade at McCallie. When she isn’t cheering on her kids at swim meets, Angel loves to spend time with her family; hiking, playing pickleball, riding bikes, working in the yard, and playing on the beach. She even loves to dabble in small remodeling projects at home!

Angel is a member and Deacon at First Cumberland Presbyterian Church. Her favorite bible verse is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus”
