Eric Spee became the headmaster of Sheridan Hills Christian School in 2016 and led their transition to a classical model. His previous educational experience includes humanities teacher, athletics coach, and theater director. Eric and his wife, Cathy, have three children, two of whom are SHCS graduates.

In 2021, Dr. Robert D. Stacey was tapped as the first full-time head of school at Augustine School in Jackson, Tennessee. Augustine is an independent classical Christian pre-K through 12 school that serves Christian families in west Tennessee. Until recently, Dr. Stacey was the provost at The Saint Constantine School in Houston, Texas—a unique kindergarten-through-college educational institution with a Christian Classical focus—and Professor of Government and Great Texts. He has taught a range of courses throughout his career in Great Books, American Political and Social Thought, History, Economics, and Constitutionalism. In addition, he has published a book in partnership with the Alliance Defending Freedom entitled Sir William Blackstone and Common Law, as well as a host of articles and reviews on topics ranging from philosophy of education to presidential elections. Prior to helping start The Saint Constantine School, Dr. Stacey served as associate provost at Houston Baptist University and founding dean of the HBU Honors College, associate professor in Regent University’s Robertson School of Government, and founding chairman of the Department of Government at Patrick Henry College where he also taught the college’s flagship course, Freedom’s Foundations. Dr. Stacey took his BA (cum laude) in political science at the University of Pennsylvania in 1991 and his MA and PhD in government at the University of Virginia, completed in 1998. In his free time, Dr. Stacey is a dedicated endurance and obstacle racing competitor and enjoys camping, hiking, kayaking, and just about anything done in the wild. Robert and his wife Sherry have three sons.
