The Saint Charalambos Orthodox Academy
"Truth Foundation School” was the vision of Fr. Theophilos Everia, a devoted priest and music teacher who founded the school beside the parish of St. Charalambos and Porphyrios in Kapsajoni. Despite lacking permanent buildings, the school grew to nearly 100 students, as families entrusted their children’s education to his caring leadership. It became especially known for excellence in music, frequently earning top honors in competitions.
In 2020, at just 34 years of age, Fr. Theophilos was called to the Lord. Since then, his widow, Presvytera Joan — herself a teacher — has courageously labored to sustain the school, determined to preserve his vision despite many challenges.
With the support of our Foundation, the school was formally registered as a private academy and renamed Saint Charalambos Orthodox Academy, ensuring that Fr. Theophilos’ legacy of faith-centered education continues to serve the community.
