Matthew LaFon

Mr. Matthew LaFon grew up mainly in Texas with four brothers. His family had the unique opportunity to live for two and a half years in South America. With a background in Genetics, Matthew ended up attending law school, serving in the U.S. Marine Corps, and working at a civil law firm as a lawyer. He met and married his wife, Kristie, a California native, and their family has remained here ever since. They felt called, specifically to the Central Coast, and currently have four amazing children. The LaFons believe strongly in raising their children to honor the Lord, that it’s their most important responsibility as parents. Christ Classical School’s purpose is to come alongside parents in this important endeavor and he’s excited to lead the school’s efforts in that regard.
