Music and Drama

Tom came to The Family Foundation School with more than 20 years' experience teaching and performing as a professional dancer. He has served as co-chairman of the Dance Program at Florida School of the Arts, and has been a member of the Cincinnati Ballet Company, the Florida Repertory Dance Theatre, the California Ballet Company, and the North Carolina Dance Theatre. He currently teaches jazz, ballet, and tap dance at FFS and is founder and director of the school's nationally recognized Show Choir. Tom and his wife Kathy live in rural Pennsylvania.

An administrator and college English teacher at The Family Foundation School, Sid's real passion is the theater. Since joining FFS in 2000, the school's drama department has grown and evolved under his leadership, with The Family Players now rivaling many college and community troupes.  A performer himself, with a Ph.D. in drama, Sid has made the works of such classic playwrights as Moliere, Chekov, and Dorothy Parker both accessible and wildly entertaining to contemporary audiences.  He resides on campus with his wife, FFS administrator Rita Argiros, and their two German shepherds.

Paul has been teaching vocal/choral music at The Family Foundation School since 1991, and is credited with building the school's nationally recognized music program. Under his direction, the Family Singers have been winning accolades at the North American Music Festival for more than a dozen years, and have performed numerous concerts for local, regional, and national audiences. Paul has served as guest conductor for choral groups on many occasions, most notably the HOBY (Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership) chorus. He also served as an FFS family leader for a number of years. Paul and his wife Diane enjoy quiet country living in their home on the wooded FFS campus.
