  • Joel Reyes

    Principal/Teacher, Grades 5-8

    I am an immigrant. I have always been a migrant. I was born a migrant. I am a Salvadorian born in the country of Honduras where my parents had migrated. In 5th grade I attended a little rural school in El Salvador where my life was changed by a teacher, a teacher who could see beyond my extreme poverty and overwhelming obstacles. He challenged me to dream. He said to me, “You should be a teacher. You would make a good one.” He was my earthly hero and I believed him.

    In 1992, I graduated with a degree in secondary education from Canadian Union College in Alberta Canada. Since then I have dedicated my life to following the example of my 5th grade hero.

    I love God’s language in nature and the outdoors. I also like reading my Bible and discovering new things each time. A huge highlight in my career took place in 2005 when International Children’s Care invited me to serve as director of a project for orphaned and abandoned children in El Salvador. We did that for four years. It is a privilege for me to serve the youth of our community through the ministry of Intermountain Adventist Academy.

She also has an endorsement in teaching Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Students. She has worked at public and private schools in Colorado, Indiana, and Taiwan.

    Currently Jami’s favorite Bible verse is: “But if from there [worshipping man-made gods] you seek the Lord your God, you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.” Her goal is to seek after God with her whole heart and to encourage her students to do the same.
