Robbie Bernardin

Spokane, Washington

Robbie Bernardin has over 15 years of experience in Catholic and Christian education, formed richly within the expeditionary learning & outward bound models. Robbie began his career teaching middle school in Denver, CO, and has gone on to serve in various leadership roles including as an assistant principal, instructional coach, adjunct professor of education, and ultimately as the founding principal of a relaunched Catholic K-8 school. Robbie believes deeply in the transformational power of authentic learning experiences that empower educators and students to serve real needs for real people in the world, drawing us into our active roles within God's unfolding story! Originally from the midwest, Robbie and his family now call beautiful Spokane, WA home, where he runs youth liturgy at his parish, and continues his other passions: trail running, Notre Dame football, reading, prodigious coffee drinking, and being a surprisingly good Lego builder... Just ask his kids.
