Our Dedicated High School Staff!



 		 Hello, my name is Kristine Corpus and I am glad to be returning to Lifegate this year. My husband, Vincent, and I are the parents of two daughters, Heidi and Valerie, both of whom attend LCS.
I was born and raised in Texas and attended Texas State University graduating in 2000 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Chemistry. I earned my Texas teaching certificate through Texas Lutheran University’s certification program.
As an active member of Central Baptist Church in Luling we have assumed many different leadership roles, including: Bible Study leaders, Vacation Bible School Coordinator, Drama Team, and even served on the committee to rewrite our Constitution and By-Laws.
I currently teach 6th grade Math and Science, Pre-Algebra and Algebra II. In addition, I look forward to coaching 6-8 grades PSIA speech and drama competition.
In anticipation for a blessed year, I pray that the Lord our God will strengthen your families and keep His guiding hand on your child throughout this year.

 I was raised in west Texas, taught school in Star TX, Athens TX, Fort Stockton, Carrizo Springs, Luling, and Seguin for a total of 30 years. I retired from public school and am beginning my sixth year coaching and teaching at Lifegate. I coach Football and Basketball, teach PE, Gov/Econ and World Geography.
My wife Cindi teaches at Barnes Middle School, coaches LCS girls varsity basketball. We have two grown sons: John and James. James is married, wife Sharrah. Both work at Hays CISD– James is a basketball, football coach. John is a computer software guy by day and comedian by night.
Our youngest son Austin is 9 years old, goes to school at LCS.  He loves basketball but does not love school.
The Rabon family belong to the First United Methodist church where John is active on the worship team.		 

 My name is Sylvia Tostado. I have been at Lifegate for 12 years not only as a teacher but also as a parent. I am married to Joe and we have three daughters. Our eldest daughter (Selina) has blessed us with a son, her husband, and three grandsons. We have a daughter (Emily), a graduate from Lifegate, and Abigail, our youngest, is a Senior at Lifegate.

My assignments at Lifegate have been High School Pace Supervisor, Kindergarten Teacher, Jr. High and High School Bible Teacher. I am also pleased to be the Yearbook Advisor and the National Honor Society Advisor.

My family and I are active members of Primera Iglesia Bautista of New Braunfels where I serve as Minister of Christian Education, Adult Sunday School Teacher, Church Secretary, and, along with my husband as, Youth Ministers.

I attend Baptist University of the Americas and am pursuing a Bachelors of Arts in Theological and Biblical Studies.

My goal for myself is to love God with all that that He has created in me and to reflect Him to others in such a way that they will be drawn to Him. To God is the Glory!


  Mr. Lippe is originally from Crawford, Texas, but has lived in Seguin since graduation from Texas Lutheran University. He is married to Penny and they have two daughters, Erin and Keri. Three grandchildren complete the Lippe family tree. Trinity is in the ninth grade; Kaden is a fifth grader; and Jacee is only 2 1/2 years old.
Don teaches two history classes at Lifegate to students in sixth, seventh, and eighth grade.
He loves to travel while looking for state and foreign license plates. His most memorable excursion was a trip to Russia with the Marilyn Hickey Ministries team.
The Lippes attend Hillcrest Assembly of God Church where Don is involved in teaching an adult Bible class. 		 

  Vickie Williams teaches various  Middle School Science classes and coaches the Varsity Cheerleading team.  She is the assistant volleyball coach and also teaches Pre-Algebra.
She and her husband have opened their hearts and home in ministry to teenage girls.   They are a wonderful example of Christ's love in action.


Ken Cramblitt teaches High School Mathematics, Chemistry, and Physics at Lifegate.

He joined Lifegate Christian School’s staff in 2004 having served 23 years in various engineering and management roles in the power industry.

Mr. Cramblitt completed his Bachelor's degree in Physics and Engineering Science at Loyola College in Baltimore. He also holds a Masters of Science degree in Environmental Engineering as well as a Certificate of Continuing Graduate Engineering Studies, both from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore.

Ken says “ The grandeur of God’s created universe is staggering. The mathematical laws that he conceived and sustains is nothing short of amazing and beautiful. Jesus, family, math and science all excite me. It is my hope that I can instill in your son or daughter an appreciation for them as well. I endeavor to support you and your family as we “teach your children in the way they should go”.
