Faculty & Staff

Mr. Martin has served 16 years as a public school educator teaching business education to middle school and high school students. He also coached Pequea Valley to their first State Championship in soccer. He has been a Principal in private Christian education for the last 12 years.

Mr. Martin is passionate about helping students grow both academically and spiritually. “The goal of teaching is to prepare kids to be ambassadors for Christ who excel at what they do while at the same time understand their purpose.

Mrs. Roche has enjoyed teaching students in the middle grades for over thirty-five years. During this time, she earned her Masters degree from Penn State in Instructional Systems and obtained her principal’s certification in 2006.

While the timeless themes, concepts and skills taught in school have largely remained the same, the approach to teaching often flip-flops with whatever new strategy has risen to the top of academia. I believe that connecting students through collaborative exercises using proven instructional practices and engaging web resources helps to make the classroom experience meaningful. But is that enough? Even more importantly, I want students to feel supported on a personal level through small class sizes and the purposeful development of the school community. During my time at Riverstone, I can see that students enjoy this kind of environment and the freedom to grow in their Christian faith without the fear of being canceled. Engaging the mind, heart, and faith are essential elements for students.

Mr. Neral loves to see how different perspectives on education benefit students. His teaching experience in Greater Philadelphia and Salt Lake City, as well as his time teaching in the heart of London, has led to a unique perspective on school structure and instructional priority. While in Utah, Mr. Neral earned a Master’s Degree in Teacher Instructional Leadership from the University of Utah, where he learned modern school leadership practices to help drive schools forward.

Mr. Neral enjoys helping students improve as readers, writers, speakers, and thinkers in his English classes. English students are consistently challenged to read and analyze interesting, age-appropriate texts. In Computer Science classes, Mr. Neral loves to dispel the myth that computers and creativity are opposite. After learning the fundamentals, thinking programmatically and designing digitally should be done with a creative lens. It’s a joy to see students create what is uniquely theirs!

Mr. Wallin has worked with young people for 40 years as a youth pastor and as a teacher in both Christian and the public school system. He has a B.A. in Religious Education from Clarks Summit University and an M.A. in Mathematics Education from Widener University. Mr. Wallin has also coached more than 100 teams in baseball, basketball and soccer as well as math and academic competition teams. His math students won more than three dozen individual and team county and state championships. He enjoys making math class both interesting and fun and he strives to teach students to think logically. He has 5 sons and 12 grandkids. In his free time, Mr. Wallin enjoys taking care of his dad, wrestling with his grandsons and playing pickleball.

Mrs. Clemmer has a passion for educating students in a variety of subjects and is grateful to continue serving the Riverstone community as art teacher! She studied Psychology and Education at Immaculata University, where she was deeply involved in the art department and went on to teach a basic drawing class there.
Over the past nine years, Mrs. Clemmer has taught Art to preschoolers through college students, as well as different levels of Mathematics, Bible, Science, and swing dancing!
She loves serving at church, gardening, cooking, painting, and exploring the world with her husband and their three beautiful children.
Mrs. Clemmer believes that education happens at every age, at every moment, and leads to a rich life, glorifying God and enjoying His kingdom!

Mrs. Nagy is a graduate of Penn State University. She has a degree in Individual and Family Studies with major emphases in Child Development and Home Economics Education. She taught Family and Consumer Science in public middle school and high school for 12 years. With a desire to have God in the center of learning, Mrs. Nagy left public school to homeschool her own children through high school. Mrs. Nagy values the opportunity to bring her expertise to the students. In her classes, students have the opportunity to learn and practice the skills needed for everyday life in the home and within the family unit. Class experiences provide them with opportunities individually and through group activities to develop and grow in important and practical skills such as time management, decision making, project planning and organization, collaboration and effective communication with fellow students, along with self-evaluation of personal work habits.
Mrs. Nagy sees the opportunity to teach at Riverstone United as a blessing from the Lord and looks forward to working together with these terrific young people!
