Our support staff and teachers at Shiloh Community School are the heartbeat behind our mission here. They believe that fueling the desire for learning is primary, but also creating a pathway for their students to see and experience how God is woven into all subjects that they're learning. Classically teaching the mind and heart of every student is their goal.
Ashley Ashby
Ashley is one of our founders, Chief Administrative Officer, and Specialized Learning Specialist. She enjoys spending time with her family, three dogs (Stella, Cole, and Charlotte) and shopping until her little heart is content. You can find her on the sidelines of her kid's games or serving at Pioneer Church. After homeschooling her two children for more than 5 years, she joined forces with her friend of 13 years, Laura to create Shiloh Community School.
Amy Wilson
Amy Wilson is our fantastic Kindergarten teacher. She is a ray of sunshine and is probably one of the kindest souls you'll ever meet. As a home-grown Stoneville girl, Amy met and married her husband, Doug of 24 years and moved to Madison. Together, they have 3 children, Max, Emma and Maddie, who she had the privilege of homeschooling from beginning to end. She attends Freedom Baptist in Rural Hall and enjoys serving there. In addition to spending time with her family and serving at her church, she loves cooking and taking care of their many farm animals.

It has been her privilege to be engaged in Christian School ministry through classrooms, homeschool, and Sunday schools all of her adult life. It is a passion of hers to discover and meet the needs of students and prepare them with the tools needed to grow into their fullest potential. Her goal is to create a fair and loving environment so students can thrive with the talents God has blessed them. Danielle said, “Communication is the key to working together effectively and I look forward to partnering with SCS families for the student’s good and God’s glory.” We are thrilled to have her using her God-given gifts at Shiloh Community this year.
Laura Easter
Laura is one of our founders, as well as our 3rd, 4th and 5th Grade teacher, and Creative Curriculum Specialist. She is a mom to three boys, wife to a church planter, and loves to dream big. Her dream to start Shiloh Community School was birthed from her passion developed through college for education and after homeschooling her two oldest boys. Through the months of Covid, while families were challenging the way they saw their child's education, Laura heard those families and felt a big push from the community encouraging her to open Shiloh Community School. Classical education and cultivating curious learners is her heart. Outside of school, you'll usually find her curled up with a podcast, sipping a creamy cup of coffee, watching a British series, cheering her boys on in baseball or serving at Pioneer Church.
Heather Belton
Heather Belton comes to Shiloh Community School as our Middle School English and Math teacher. She's a wife to Eric, a mom to Isaac, volunteer at LOT 2540, and lover of Classical Education. Heather homeschooled her son for 7 years, who now attends GTCC, and was a Director for Classical Conversations. It was there that she found a passion for elevating the everyday parts of education to show them how God is woven through it. She and her family recently gutted and restored a 1960 GM4104 Bus to an RV, so they can travel the US. It's her desire for every child to learn to love learning and to create a wholesome environment to cultivate rich relationships with her students to prepare them for life outside the walls of Shiloh Community School. Heather is a valuable asset to our school family and your kids will appreciate her talents for years to come after leaving her classroom.
Eric Belton
Eric joins the Shiloh Community School team, as our Middle School Science, History and Geography teacher. As a graduate from Elon, Eric pursued his passions right away with a lifetime career at the Rockingham County Governmental Center and retired after 26 years as the Geographic Information System (GIS) Director. He also served 30 years as a Volunteer Firefighter with the Stoneville Fire Department. Eric is married to Heather and they have one son, Isaac. He serves at Pioneer Church as a bass player on the worship team. He volunteers regularly at LOT 2540. In his free time, Eric enjoys studying the Word, Theology and discussing what he's learning with Pastor TJ. If Eric could choose one geographic location to spend his days and travel to, in his newly renovated RV, it would have sand, the ocean and 80 degree weather. Our team is delighted to join Eric in the fight to bring Glory to God's name through the education we offer and way we interact with our students each day.
Kara Denny
Kara is our Art Teacher for all grades. She is a mom of two boys, wife and dog mom to Dolly. Finding a way to be creative is no problem for Kara. She is constantly making, painting, or constructing something interesting for herself or others. She's not afraid to let the kids use different mediums and is such a talented teacher that brings out the best in our students.
Carmela Price
Carmela, also known as "Carmy" is our Music Teacher. After attending Bridgewater College, she became a dedicated wife and mother to two adult children. Carmy was a voice and piano instructor for many years. Her children, who are now a physical therapist and speech pathologist were homeschooled. Outside of school, Carmy can be found serving at church, traveling with her husband and visiting her children.
TJ Easter
TJ has joined the SCS family, as the Bible teacher. He is Laura's husband and also the full-time pastor of Pioneer Church. As a graduate of Liberty University, in Religious Studies, TJ was called to ministry and the calling was nothing short of God's grace. TJ has a passion for making God's Word real and relatable for the next generation. It's our hope that he can help fuel the mind of each child who attends SCS with the knowledge and understanding of the Word, so that they can come to know and love Jesus. If TJ isn't preaching, you can find him coaching his son's baseball team, fishing, reading, or serving someone in the community. Your kids will love TJ's fun and engaging personality.
Violet Ashby
Violet is our Main Office Assistant, but more than that, she is our one-of-a-kind, fill in the gaps, anywhere you need her support staff member. She brings joy to everyone who enters the doors of Shiloh Community School by how she greets everyone each morning. If there is a need, it's usually filled by Violet. Day in and day out, we see the footprints of God by how well Violets serves the students and staff of SCS.
