Our Team

Rebecca Hancock has been an educator since she graduated from Point Loma Nazarene University in 2005.  After earning her Bachelor’s in Education, Rebecca taught in a variety of grade levels from Kindergarten through 8th grade and held a variety of teacher leader roles as she earned  a Master’s of Education from Northern Arizona University.  These years were very formative in her growth as an educator and provided a solid foundation as she learned about instruction and leadership.  She has been a principal since 2018 and is finishing her Doctorate of Education, which has allowed her to refine her leadership skills and understanding of schools as an organization. In 2021, she was honored to accept the position of principal at EAGLE College Preparatory Schools South Mountain, where is eager to partner with families, educators and scholars to ensure all EAGLE scholars soar.

Rebecca enjoys spending time with her husband and young son.  She loves to cycle with her family, hike, and read.

Mr. Corey is proud to serve at EAGLE South Mountain and looks forward to working with our EAGLE Scholars and families.

As the School Operations Manager at EAGLE College Prep South Mountain, I work collaboratively with our school community in order to support the educational experience for all.  I attended Arizona State University and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and have achieved a Masters in Family Studies through the University of New South Wales, Australia.  I was in the classroom teaching for a total of 9 years and built my program operations skills over 6 years working in the non-profit sector overseas coordinating an access and inclusion disability program.  My role as the School Operations Manager allows me to use my educational and program operations experiences in a unique way and I am excited that I have this opportunity to work with you.

Here at EAGLE College Prep South Mountain, I stand at the forefront of helping families navigate the wide world of school enrollment and ensuring that you have an exceptional experience finding the right school for your child. It is my top priority that families have a seamless transition from the onboarding process to your child's first day of school. Prior to joining the admissions team here at EAGLE, I taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. I am originally from Illinois where I received my bachelors degree from Eastern Illinois University in public relations and I have a minor in advertising. I am eager to make EAGLE a home for families and scholars where they will be able to discover their highest potential and grow a love for life long learning.

As the Office Manager, it will be my pleasure to welcome you to the school and assist you with your family's needs.  This is my second year with EAGLE, serving last year as the wellness coordinator.  Prior to working with EAGLE, my husband and I were house parents at group homes in Pennsylvania and Texas.  My real claim to fame is the eight years I worked at Walt Disney World.  So don't be alarmed if you see me break out into song while I walk down the hall! I look forward meeting all our scholars and their families.
