The Faculty of Lakecrest consists of twelve teachers. All members of the faculty hold Teaching Certification graded by the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador. The majority of our teachers originate from Newfoundland and Labrador and a number of them have international teaching experience.

While their teaching backgrounds are quite diverse, there is a consistency in their high expectations and thorough professionalism in the classroom.
