School Office Staff
Teachers and Staff you can trust
Entrusting your child into the hands of another adult to care for, and teach them can be an intimidating piece of life, regardless if you are dropping your child off here at Park Street School or on their first day at college. We are proud of our staff who will deeply care for your child, educate them in both school and social skills, and provide a nurturing and loving environment during their time at Park Street School.
Director, Crystal Allen
Hi! My name is Crystal Allen and I am excited to be a part of Park Street School. I have been in education for 10 years and I can’t wait to bring my experience to the Ashland community. I married my husband almost 2 years ago and we live on a farm in Greenwich with plenty of land and lots of woods that we enjoy with our four wheeler. I have 3 adult children, with 2 granddaughters, I also have 3 bonus daughters, and a bonus granddaughter. My husband and I attend The Chapel in Norwalk with most of our family and friends where we enjoy praise and worship every week.
Thank you for the opportunity to work with your children. I look forward to getting to know each and every one of you!
Assistant Director, Shanna Stoffer
Hello! My name is Shanna Stoffer and I am currently the Assistant Director and Tuition Coordinator at Park Street School; however, I have served many roles at the school over the last 18 years. My Early Childhood Education Degree from Ashland University led me to Park Street many years ago and my passion for helping shape young minds has kept me around. I love watching children learn, grow and thrive in the community where I was born and raised. My husband, Mike, and I are now blessed to be raising our 3 kids here. Kaley (12), Colton (9), and Chase (5) keep us very busy with all of their extracurricular activities, and, for now, being their personal chauffeur seems to be my main hobby, but I wouldn't want it any other way! Thank you for entrusting Park Street with your children. I can't wait to get to know them!.
Children’s Ministry Director, Mary Cooper
Hello there! My name is Mary Cooper and I am the Children’s Ministry Director at Park Street. While I oversee and coordinate all things related to Kid’s Ministry at the church, I also offer support to the school’s office administration and staff, so you might see me in the building from time to time. I am a University of Toledo graduate and have my degree in Art Education. I have worked as an art teacher in the Loudonville-Perrysville School District, Discovery School and served as the Education Director at the Mansfield Art Center. However, prior to this position, I stayed home with my kids and provided in-home childcare. My husband Pete and I have three amazing kiddos. We are also part owners of Goldberry Roasting Company, so between running a business, taking care of three kids and working full-time, you can imagine that there isn’t a lot of free time! When I do have it, you can find me hanging out with my family, spending time cooking/baking in the kitchen, or dreaming of my next DIY project. It’s been a joy to develop relationships with this amazing staff and see your kiddos every week!
