Crystal Oliphant

Crystal is so excited to continue her work with the library program and Kindergarten at Syringa. She worked very hard to open our very own Syringa Library. Crystal used to spend winters in St. Thomas, USVI, and lived in the Wood River Valley part-time, but now she calls Hailey, Idaho her permanent year-round home. Crystal and her husband Matt have three children Samuel, Sarah, and Mabel. 

Crystal has her associate’s degree in education and library science.  She is finishing her bachelor’s this year in General Studies. She is also enrolled in the Sophia Institute in the Waldorf teacher trainer program.

Crystal is passionate about encouraging all children to love reading. “Everyone is a reader…. Some just haven’t found their favorite book yet.”
