Meet Kerry Stockman -proud Franchise Owner of Primrose School of Apex. As a longtime resident of the Triangle, Kerry began her entrepreneurial journey in 2011. She is thrilled to bring the Primrose experience offering premier early education and care to families in the Apex community.
Kerry has 2 children, Anya, her 17 year old daughter and Cooper, her 7 year old son. When looking for opportunities to invest in something that would positively impact the community Kerry made the decision to open her own Primrose school. With her extensive background working with children, she knew it was the right fit for their family.
Kerry, originally from Massachusetts, relocated to North Carolina to be closer to family. She attended Franklin Pierce University in New Hampshire where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. She also attended Northeastern University in Massachusetts and earned a Master of Science in Counseling. Kerry worked in the mental health and foster cares field for 15 years, always knowing she wanted to work with students very early on to have the biggest impact on development and education.
Kerry's goal is to offer an atmosphere where children can grow their Active Minds, Healthy Bodies and Happy Hearts and provide parents with peace of mind knowing their children are well cared for and receiving a premier education.
