Rehan Bholat joins South Bay Classical Academy as the Founding Director of Admissions. He began his career as a History teacher at Alliance Renee & Meyer Luskin College‑Ready Academy and Valor Academy High School, where he taught 10th–12th grade and built systems that improved clarity and consistency across teams.
