Micah Gallegos
I’m Micah Gallegos, the Director of Athletics & Facilities at Traverse City Christian School (TCCS). Born and raised right here in Traverse City, I pursued my education at Indiana Wesleyan University, earning a BS in Education, and later completed a Master’s in Educational Leadership at Indiana University. My wife, Rebecca, and I have been married for nearly 29 years, and together we have eight children—three biological and five adopted: Ana, MaryBeth, Irwin, Madelyn, Gaby, Tony, Jaqui, and Isaiah. We share our home with two dogs, Willow, a Maltipoo, and BoBo, a French Bulldog. I’m a huge sports enthusiast, watching everything from football to golf and still enjoying a round of golf when I can. I also love exploring global cuisines and proudly call myself a self-appointed Master Taco Chef.
At TCCS, I’m deeply inspired by the environment and culture, where relationships are built on respect, encouragement, and genuine care. What sets our school apart is the way faith and learning go hand in hand, fostering a community committed to knowing and supporting each student individually—a rarity in many schools. My role allows me to contribute to this unique atmosphere, ensuring our facilities and athletic programs reflect the same values of care and connection. To families considering TCCS, I’d say our school offers a place where your child is truly known, supported, and encouraged to grow in faith and character, making it a special community to be part of.
