Emily West

Executive Assistant to the Principal

Emily joined World Academy in April 2024 as a Full-Time School Substitute, supporting students and teachers across both the ECE and K-8 programs. During her time in classrooms, she discovered an appreciation for the behind-the-scenes work that helps a school community thrive. She has enjoyed assisting with school event planning, coordination, and supporting students, staff, and administration. This school year, Emily is excited to begin her new role as Executive Assistant to the Principal and looks forward to working closely with Mrs. VanDeventer to support the World Academy Community.

Emily is currently pursuing the last year of her bachelor’s degree in Applied Psychology with a strong concentration in Education Advocacy at the University of New Hampshire. She enjoys finding ways to support both students and educators while fostering a welcoming school community.

Outside of work and school, Emily enjoys traveling, especially spending her summers in Wells, Maine, and escaping to Daytona Beach Shores, Florida, in the winter. She loves exploring new places and spending time with family and friends.

Emily is excited to continue growing professionally while supporting the mission and community of World Academy, and we are glad to have her skills and talents supporting us!
