Gina Richard has long been a part of the Great Hearts family. Her daughter started at Anthem Prep in 6th grade and graduated in 2024. She is an ardent supporter of the classical approach to education that Great Hearts Anthem provides. She has worked at Great Hearts Anthem Archway on the ESS team and was a Teaching Assistant before taking a brief sabbatical and returning as the Director of Operations.
Ms. Richard is passionate about developing and executing new growth directives, analyzing, revising, and implementing policies, and overseeing effective operations throughout the school. She is described by coworkers as someone who loves her job, is incredibly bright, hardworking, forward-thinking, kind, joyful, unbelievably organized, level-headed, and easy to work with. Her laugh in the hallways makes her coworkers smile.
Ms. Richard grew up in Walla Walla, Washington. She attended Gonzaga University (if you are polite, she’ll tell you how to pronounce it correctly). When she is not at school she loves to decorate, make custom stationary, volunteer, do home improvement projects, and brush her long-haired cat Butter while watching TV. But most importantly, she loves to spend time with the most important people in her world, her family.
