We had the good fortune of connecting with Dr. Celynda Kingsby and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Dr. Celynda, how does your business help the community or world?
St. Eugene is truly a beacon of hope and excellence for the community. Our school is situated in a residential area, and often gets mistaken for being solely a church. Once passersby realize that there is a gem sitting amongst them, they stop by and inquire. Our success comes mainly from word of mouth; students attend here, graduate, grow into adulthood, and bring their children to our school. We are a family-centered school, catering to the needs of children between the ages of 4-14. Our community provides a safe learning space, filled with love and care. The faculty here are incredibly dedicated and go the extra mile to ensure our students are receiving a rich and fulfilling education. We educate the whole-child, instilling educational foundations coupled with faith, integrity, and honesty. I am proud to be a St. Eugene Cougar, and I can attest that my St. E Family feels the same!

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
