Convocation 2025


Glory to God and great is His faithfulness! We are blessed to be entering our 27th year at Veritas and we wait in great anticipation for all that God will do and show us this year. Today, we gathered as a school community to set our minds and hearts on the truth, goodness, and beauty that awaits us this year.


If you were unable to join us, we have the video linked below.

Welcome, Mr. Woernle and Family!


The Veritas board members are excited for the beginning of a new school year with our wonderful Veritas Community! We hope that each of you had the opportunity to meet Mr. Woernle and his family at the Ice Cream Social.


Please see below for a brief introduction of our new Headmaster's qualifications.


Ronald E. (“Eric”) Woernle Jr. is a seasoned educational leader with over two decades of experience driving institutional growth, academic excellence, and community engagement. Eric has played a pivotal role in leading dual accreditations, campus expansion, and the development of inclusive programs tailored to diverse learning needs. 


Eric's background includes distinguished service in both the active duty and U.S. Army Reserves components, where he achieved the rank of Major and earned multiple commendations, including two Bronze Star Medals. His military career instilled in him a deep sense of duty, discipline, and operational excellence—qualities he brings into his educational leadership.


Eric holds multiple advanced degrees in education, theology, and classical studies, including an Educational Specialist Degree in Educational Leadership from Liberty University. Eric is passionate about building relationships, creating and maintaining a healthy, Christ-centered school culture, and cultivating learning communities where academic rigor, character formation, and faith integration thrive.


When he's not leading in education, Eric enjoys reading, mentoring, aquascaping, hiking, visiting aquariums, zoos, museums, and contributing to local community initiatives. We are excited to welcome Eric, his wife Tara, and their children to the Veritas community.

With the start of a new school year, comes the start of our fall sport season! Our Varsity Boys Soccer Team played their first contest of the year last week, coming up short 4-0 against a good Hickory Christian.


Most of our other teams will get going this week, so come out and support our students if you can.
