Scott R Forrester
English and Drama Teacher
Scott R Forrester is a Detroit native who knows surprisingly little about cars, but far more about hockey than is strictly necessary in life. Scott joined The Geneva School in 2015 with fifteen years of teaching experience, primarily in Christian classical school. He brings with him a love of great literature and drama, a fascination with God’s hand at work in history, and a desire to pursue true humanity in imitation of Christ. He currently teaches theatre and English, and enjoys the challenge of growing in wisdom and grace alongside his students.
Scott is a firm believer that you can’t judge a book by its cover, but you can get a pretty good measure of a man by looking at his library. This is especially important because he claims to have “learned to read” only after attending Hillsdale College where he majored in the classical discipline of political economy and minored in both English and Christian studies. It was in college that Scott discovered a desire to learn he could never have imagined growing up, and fell in love with the collaborative art of theatre.
Scott met his beautiful wife Orie (pronounced OH-dee-ay) while teaching on the mission field in Japan. They have been married since 1997 and have two daughters, Kiri Anne (’20) and Moira Kate (’22), both of whom attended Geneva. The Forrester clan attends Saint Andrew’s Chapel, Sanford.
