We love our students! I hope everyone had fun at the Caterpillar and Butterfly Tea Party!

Our final teacher spotlight is the talented Ms Fernanda!! Ms Fernanda has the kindest, biggest heart of anyone I've ever known. Preschool truly is her calling! She also has the amazing ability to roll with any situation thrown at her. She loves her students so much and her students sure love her! My son still says she is his favorite teacher of all time. I'm so lucky to have her for a friend and our school is so lucky to have her for a teacher!

Our next Teacher Appreciation spotlight is the wonderful Ms Emily!! Ms Emily has been the Caterpillar teacher for 5 years now and is an amazing first teacher for our littlest friends. She creates a warm, loving first classroom experience and makes each child feel stable and seen. She is also the teacher in our crew who remembers all the details and keeps us all organized. We would be lost without her! We are so lucky to have Ms Emily at Green Pastures!

It's Teacher Appreciation Week! We are so lucky at Green Pastures to have such an amazing teaching staff, and this week I would like to highlight each one to show them how much they mean to us. Our first teacher spotlight is Ms Laura!
Ms Laura can do it all! Not only is she a wonderful mother, wife and friend but an amazing teacher as well. As Director's Assistant she is truly a jack of all trades and keeps preschool running smoothly. She is always thinking 3 steps ahead, anticipating needs before they appear. She teaches cooking class, something every student looks forward to. Her calm in any situation is an amazing example to us all and we are so lucky to have her at Green Pastures! Thank you Ms Laura for all you do for us!
