What do you like about early childhood?
There are so many things to love about early childhood. I love to see the “aha” moments when a child masters a new skill. I love the pure honesty of a preschooler’s words. I love the joy on each child’s face when they see something new and exciting. I love how a hug can melt away the sadness in a toddler. I love how every day is different than the day before!
What makes your school unique?
One thing that makes our school special and unique is the number of long-term teachers we have with us. Our school is well-established in the community, and we have a strong relationship with the City of Savage. We are regular sponsors of citywide family events and activities.
What is your favorite children’s book?
I have three favorite children’s books: “Each Peach Pear Plum” by Janet & Allan Ahlberg, “Home for a Bunny” by Margaret Wise Brown, and “The Giving Tree” by Shel Silverstein
