Emily Costar
Third Grade Teacher
Emily joined the third grade teaching team in 2024. She is originally from Winter Park, FL, and has been a part of the Geneva community as a student from kindergarten through graduation and then as an alumna. After graduating from Geneva in 2020, she attended Baylor University, earning a BS in elementary education, class of 2024. Emily is thrilled to be back at Geneva as a teacher and delights in experiencing the Christ-centered community and the wonder and curiosity of the classroom.
Throughout her childhood, Emily loved school and playing “teacher” with her three younger siblings. However, it was not until high school that she discovered her passion for teaching. After serving in a leadership program at a Christian summer camp where she had the opportunity to lead elementary-aged girls, Emily realized that she wanted to pursue a career in teaching, and since then she has not looked back.
Emily enjoys spending time with her family and friends, going for runs and long walks, playing all kinds of sports—especially soccer and pickleball—and playing board games. She loves trying new coffee shops as well as cooking new recipes. Emily is overjoyed that her teaching career is continuing at Geneva and loves how God works in and through the incredible Geneva community.
