The People at SiLA

Our teachers and staff know our children well and share in their everyday life at school. Each person has a different role, but we work together with one purpose — to help children feel cared for, supported, and ready to grow.

HYUN WOO BYUN

Founder

Whenever I see a rainbow over our kindergarten, I am reminded of God’s promise, and I find myself smiling again. Trusting in that promise, I continue, one step at a time, to build a school that will be a place of refuge and rest for children.

We do not know what these children will become in the years ahead. But I believe that the love of God, who watches over them and clothes them, will lead their lives in His goodness.

SiLA was built with this hope, upon the precious legacy my mother left behind and through the prayers and dedication of many people. On this rock of faith, I hope our children will build lives that are happy and beautiful.
