Our School
Ms. Hodge began her career at the St. Thomas/St. John Seventh-day Adventist School, where she served from 1983 to 1987. She then relocated to Miami, Florida, where she worked at Miami Union Academy from 1988 to 2017, serving as teacher, vice principal, and later, principal. From 2017 to 2020, she continued her leadership in education as Lead Teacher at Bethel S.D.A. School.
Her service extends beyond the classroom, having contributed to the North American Division Education Summer Committee, Southern Union Education Council, Southern Union Secondary Advisory, Southeastern Conference Executive Committee, Southeastern Conference Board of Education, and education evaluation teams for both Southern Union and Southeastern Conference.
In 2020, Ms. Hodge returned to St. Thomas to assume the role of Principal for the St. Thomas/St. John Seventh-day Adventist School. She believes learning should be a fun and exciting experience for children and is dedicated to increasing both student enrollment and the school’s academic offerings.
Renee P. Hodge is a native of St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. She holds a B.S. Degree in Elementary Education from Oakwood College (now Oakwood University) and an M.S. Degree in Early Childhood Education from Florida International University.
