Celebrating Our Upcoming 60th Graduating Class!

Sixty years of giggles.
Sixty years of friendships.
Sixty years of confident learners walking proudly toward kindergarten.

Buttons and Bows Pre-School is thrilled to celebrate our 60th graduating class in the 2026โ€“2027 school year, and we invite your family to be part of this unforgettable milestone!

For six decades, we have built a tradition of nurturing the whole child - academically, socially, emotionally, and creatively - in a loving environment that feels like home.



**Where Learning and Love Grow Together**

At Buttons and Bows, we believe early childhood should be joyful, meaningful, and filled with discovery.

๐Ÿง  Cognitive Development

We build strong foundations in early literacy, math readiness, problem-solving, and critical thinking โ€” all through hands-on, engaging experiences that spark curiosity and confidence.

๐Ÿ’› Social & Emotional Growth

We help children develop independence, empathy, resilience, and strong friendships. Our classrooms are filled with encouragement, guidance, and celebration of every milestone.

๐ŸŽจ Artistic & Creative Expression

Creativity shines here! Through art, music, imaginative play, storytelling, and hands-on exploration, children discover their voices and learn to express themselves with confidence.

๐ŸŒˆ Our 2026โ€“2027 Programs

We proudly offer two thoughtfully designed programs:

Preschool (Ages 3โ€“4)

A joyful introduction to structured learning, independence, and social confidence โ€” where curiosity is encouraged and foundational skills begin to bloom.

Kinder Prep (Ages 4โ€“5)

Our Kindergarten Readiness program is designed to prepare children academically and emotionally for their next big step. We focus on leadership, strong literacy and math foundations, problem-solving skills, and the confidence to walk into kindergarten ready to thrive.

A Community That Feels Like Family

Buttons and Bows is more than a preschool - itโ€™s a tradition.

Families return year after year. Siblings follow siblings. Former students return as parents. Thatโ€™s the legacy 60 years creates.

We partner closely with families, celebrate growth together, and create memories your child will carry long after graduation day.

We started a new Buttons & Bows tradition this May โ€” Mystery Reader!

Todayโ€™s special Mystery Reader was Officer Jake! ๐Ÿš”๐Ÿ’™
Not only did he read to our students and teach them about being a community helper, but he is also a former Buttons & Bows student himself โ€” making today even more special! โค๏ธ

The kiddos loved hearing stories, exploring the sheriff vehicle, and asking so many questions. We love seeing our Buttons & Bows alumni come back to inspire the next generation of little learners.

Thank you, Officer Jake, for taking the time to make today so memorable for our preschool family!

As Teacher Appreciation Week comes to an end, I just want to take a moment to truly thank the incredible teachers at Buttons and Bows Preschool.

This week, we had the joy of spoiling our team with gifts, coffee, and love, but what made it even more special was watching our families pour their appreciation onto you as well. The kindness, support, and gratitude shown this week are a reflection of the impact you make every single day.

Taking on and continuing the legacy that has been built around this preschool can feel overwhelming at times, especially as we prepare to celebrate our 60th graduating class next year - such an incredible milestone for Buttons and Bows. But because of this amazing team, it has never felt impossible. The heart of this school has always been its teachers, and that legacy continues because of each of you.

From Telma and her unwavering support, leadership, and love, to Tesha, who became such an incredible support and leader after we took over, and to Christa, Olga, Brooke, Mikaila, and Makenna - thank you for stepping into this legacy with such kindness, dedication, and heart. Each of you plays an important role in making Buttons and Bows feel like home.

Thank you for loving the children so deeply, for showing patience and grace, and for helping carry on a school built on trust, learning, and family. Your hard work does not go unnoticed, and I am so grateful to walk this journey alongside all of you.

Buttons and Bows is special because of the people inside it โ€ฆ.and that starts with each of you. โค๏ธ
