Despite previously living on the East Coast her entire life, Beth Caylor has always suspected herself to be a native Californian. She joined Cate after five years at The Lawrenceville School, where she was a Science Master and Assistant House Master.

Throughout her career, Beth has been drawn to opportunities to share her passion for environmental and biological sciences through teaching. She has been fortunate to lead field programs to The Island School in the Bahamas, develop and implement a program in Hawaiian Oceanography for Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth, and teach Caribbean Oceanography aboard SSV Ocean Star in the Sea-mester Global Program. Beth has M.S. degrees in science education and curriculum studies from Indiana University as well as in marine science from the College of William and Mary. As an undergraduate at the University of Virginia, she participated in the Semester at Sea program and dual-majored in biology and studio art.

Beth teaches Advanced and Honors Biology in the Science Department, leads the SCUBA program, and lives on campus with her husband Kelly and son Holden.
