\n\t\tGeorge Crace\n\t<\/h3>\n

\n\t\tPresident, Chairman of the Board\n\t<\/h5>\n\t

With a heart to see kids succeed in life, George Crace brings both extensive experience and life-long passion to his work at The Total Development Center.<\/p>\n

George earned a Bachelor’s degree from Harvard University in 1972 and a Master’s degree in Education from Stanford University in 1973. After 27 years educating, teaching, coaching, counseling, and mentoring students and young adults in public and private education, and with a vision of helping all kids succeed in school and become college, career, and life ready, George and his wife, Donna, founded The Total Development Center (TDC) in 2000.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tContinue Reading<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t

In 2010 Donna and George opened an office for TDC to empower people of all ages to unlock their potential and achieve their goals, desires, and dreams.<\/p>\n

George donates time to the TDC to assist students, families, and adults who seek assistance. He is certified as an Independent Educational Consultant through UC Irvine and licensed as a “Choose To Win” coach through the Ziglar Corporation. He is also the Northwest Region’s Director of Professional Development for the 3D Institute serving Public and Private school administrators, athletic directors, and athletic coaches in their ongoing training and growth. George brings a wealth of investment capital to each conversation, coaching session, and individual he serves.<\/p>\n

When not at the TDC, George and Donna spend quality time with their 4 adult children and beautiful grandchildren. They love to travel with their businesses, golf together, and enjoy walking and taking in beautiful sunsets wherever they go!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"Donna\n

\n\t\tDonna Crace\n\t<\/h3>\n
\n\t\tExecutive Director\n\t<\/h5>\n\t

Donna brings organizational, marketing, and great people skills to her position as Executive Director of TDC. She has extensive experience in Public Relations and Advertising, and also has done professional voice work and singing throughout the greater Portland area. From 1989-2004 Donna was a successful Realtor. She enjoyed helping families buy and sell homes, but especially had a passion to make their transition to new schools and communities a positive experience!<\/p>\n

Donna was part of the original administrative team to open Horizon Christian High School in 2005. She coordinated enrolling all the students to the new school in the spring of 2006, before the first building was even complete! Her God-given-talents and passion for families to experience a Christian school experience made her a perfect admissions coordinator for many years! In 2010 she “retired” from Horizon Christian Schools to join her husband, George, full time in developing the programs and materials for The Total Development Center.<\/p>\n

Donna loves her time with their beautiful grandchildren and teaching them how to play the piano, plant flowers in her garden, and help tend to her beautiful roses. She is writing her first book called “Momma Donna’s Guide to Football” and plans to share her 30 years as a Coach’s Wife and football mom to help new football moms, grandmas, and girlfriends truly understand the game of football and life!<\/p>\n\t\t
