Create. Inspire. Learn.

Matt is the Senior Pastor of The Homestead Church. He lives in Aubrey, TX, with his wife, Jamie, and his two daughters, Emery and Finleigh Brown. His dream of starting a school was amplified when a need for an education model that suited his daughters began to arise. Emery and Finleigh have both been diagnosed with Dyslexia, which can be challenging in the traditional public or private school models. As a child Matt suffered with the strain of education on the Dyslexic mind and endeavored to believe there had to be a better way!

​

Matt is a trained Paramedic and EMT and Jamie graduated with a bachelor’s degree from TCU.

​

Emery and Finleigh both now attend The Homestead Academy and have flourished in the environment.

​

Matt enjoys golfing, attending sporting events, and is passionate about Jesus!

Mrs. Scott has her bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary studies and is certified in early childhood education through 6th grade, in all subjects. She is also certified in the science of teaching reading, GT and ESL.

 

Mrs. Scott has been teaching for 5 years in the public school system and while she has enjoyed it, her heart is to teach in an environment that promotes Jesus and instills a joy and love for learning! She believes that learning should be fun and engaging for the mind and body through movement and play. Mrs. Scott is excited to meet students where they are and provide an individualized learning experience for them to be successful and feel proud of their learning. She hopes that each student leaves each day knowing they are loved, important and capable of anything they put their minds to!

​

In her free time, Mrs. Scott loves spending time with her husband, Dylan, and their two boys, Sterling and Stetson. She loves being outside whether it’s a pool day in the Texas heat, or a nature walk on cooler days. She is an avid reader for anything fiction and enjoys baking!

Mrs. Rae was born and raised on Georgia and attended Emmanuel University studying early childhood education. She started with The Homestead Academy as the assistant teacher and substitute and fell in love with the atmosphere and all that THA stands for: slowing down and being creative with learning and developing each child to discover their beloved identity. Her passion for the whole physical, emotional and spiritual health of each student is her top priority.

​​

Mrs. Rae is married to her husband, Alton, and they have two boys, Beckham and Cooper. She enjoys singing, song writing, playing piano, volunteering at the local theater and playing in the sunshine with her boys.

 

She is inspired daily by the students at THA!
