I can remember sitting in class as a first and second grade student dreading being called on to read. I loathed school. School was a place for being teased by peers and being berated for not knowing the answer. I would turn bright red whenever I was called on and I sweat with nervousness about what others thought about me.
By the time I was in high school I had pretty well decided that I wanted to go into education. I can recall telling my family that I wanted to be a teacher and them laughing. They all knew how much I had hated school and could not believe that I would be interested in continuing that endeavor. I gave them the same speech I have told families at open house in my own classroom. I want to be in education because I hated school, and I never want another child to feel the way I did about reading and math. The root of my problems started before first and second grade. The problem began in preschool and kindergarten. I left kindergarten without the foundational skills needed to succeed in the following grades. It is impossible to read to learn when you never really mastered learning to read.
When I entered college at Utah State University, I would talk about owning my own preschool and childcare facility as part of my life plan. I used to draw how I wanted the building to look and how the programs would be implemented. As I got further into the Elementary Education program my ideas for my school morphed to incorporate my newfound knowledge of teaching styles and ideals.
Fast forward a few years. At this point I had changed districts, grades, got married and added to the number of members in our family. In 2012 I had to find a sitter or daycare for my son, Corbin, and I stumbled across Primrose in West Chester. I met with the director who gave me a tour and walked me through the curriculum as well as the programs offered to the older children. I was in shock. Here was the exact school I had doodled and dreamt about for years. My dream school had already been created and was successful. I enrolled the next month to start my Master’s Degree and began planning how I would join a Franchise that held the same expectations of educators, students, and parents as I did.
At present day I am remarried and with Dave’s two children and my three we have a full house. Funny enough, I knew he would understand my passion for education and premium childcare when while we were dating, Dave shared that his children had attended Primrose when they were little. I am so excited to have our children enrolled or involved through service at the Primrose School of Mason as well as our sister schools in South Lebanon and Symmes. I know you will feel the same level of excellence in education and childcare that I have experienced at our schools.
