Welcome Tyler Ashworth!

Welcome to Tyler Ashworth, who has been selected as our new Upper School Principal! An experienced and creative Christian school leader, Tyler is a visionary who takes great joy in serving Christ, equipping students, supporting and encouraging teachers, and partnering with Christian families. Tyler has 12 years of experience in education, including six years of experience as a leader in Christian education in the Hampton Roads area. Tyler holds a bachelor’s degree from Old Dominion University, a master’s degree from Liberty University, and a post master’s certificate from George Washington University with a concentration in educational leadership and administration. His teaching experience includes art, ethics, and biblical worldview. As a public school teacher, Tyler served as an art teacher for five years and used his creativity to inspire students to love art and to take risks. By doing so, he looked to point students to the Creator.

"Tyler is respected and loved by the parents for his commitment to being involved with the overall spiritual and educational prosperity of their children’s lives."

Since 2016, Tyler has served as the Upper School Director for Norfolk Christian Schools, where he created meaningful and long lasting ways to assist students in spiritual and academic growth. Tyler previously served as the Upper School Principal for Hampton Christian Academy for two years. Tyler was an adjunct professor and taught Christian ethics and Biblical worldview classes at Bethel College in Hampton, Virginia. He created two online courses and was an esteemed Faculty of the Year in 2015 and in 2016.  In addition, Tyler is a dedicated husband to Jessica and father of three – Noah, Jovie and baby Eleanor. He loves to laugh, spend time with his family, play and watch sports, create in his free time, and serve his church. He is a tea drinker more than coffee and enjoys adventure and pleasant surprises. He grew up in the hills of Virginia in Pulaski County and every now and then the Appalachian twang is still evident in his speech!

Tyler believes Christian education is the most influential and significant factor that contributes to the health of the world and in the efforts to shape young people into lifelong, productive followers of Christ. One of his colleagues said, "Tyler is a kind, compassionate man with a genuine desire to serve the Lord with all of his heart. He is passionate about the pursuit of righteousness, and he is unwavering in his commitment to honor and integrity."   Another colleague said, "Tyler is a leader who sets clear expectations, makes decisions, and follows through so that things get accomplished. Not only is he highly revered by teachers, but he also has stellar rapport with the students because they find him enthusiastic and passionate about their well-being. Tyler is respected and loved by the parents for his commitment to being involved with the overall spiritual and educational prosperity of their children’s lives."   We are looking forward to meeting Tyler in the coming weeks! He will join the team at StoneBridge on July 1, 2020.
