As we begin a new school year, we want to take a moment to highlight a few new faces at WC, as well as some familiar faces stepping into new roles.
Worthington Christian is excited to welcome Lisa Maxwell as a Study Hall Educational Aide at the Upper School. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts from Iowa State University. Lisa comes to us after serving as an Educational Aide at Poway High School. Lisa and her husband have an adult son, and they recently returned to Ohio after 28 years away.
We asked staff members several “getting to know you” questions; we hope you enjoy learning a bit more about Lisa!

I grew up on a farm in Iowa.
Who was your favorite teacher in school, and why?
My high school art teacher. He was kind, calm, and planned creative projects that would challenge you. Plus, his classroom was full of art and visually peaceful.

A different language.
