Hi! My name is Stacie Schwark and I am the Assistant Teacher for the Middle Infants Classroom. I was born and raised in Wickliffe, Ohio, which is on the east side of Cleveland. I graduated in 2004 with my Bachelor of Science Degree in Early Childhood Education, specifically in PreK-3rd grade. Since 2004, I have had a variety of classroom experiences teaching children as young as three years old, Preschool, Prekindergarten, Junior Kindergarten, Kindergarten, First and Third grades. I was fortunate and blessed to have found Primrose and have been with our school since we opened in 2018. I would like to take this opportunity to share more about myself. I have been married 16 years to my husband Michael. We have two cat fur babies, Frankie and Benny, with hopes to maybe adopt or foster children of our own sometime soon. On the weekends, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, volunteering at church functions/activities, working on and completing new home projects and/or decorating/redecorating something around the house, reading and especially listening to music, as I was studying music in college before majoring in Early Childhood Education. I love Italian food and baking. I find baking relaxing and enjoyable. I am grateful to have the ability to bake and enjoy baking so naturally. I have the confidence to try a new recipe that I have never tried before and take it to a party or serve to houseguests. One of my favorite children’s books is The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister. This book is one of my favorites because of the lesson we can takeaway from this story. Sharing what we have with others not only makes others happy, but makes us happy as well. The Primrose Friend(s) that I can most relate to is Og the Bookworm and Billy the Duck. Growing up, I always had my nose in a book reading and/or I was always listening to music. I have many musical experiences, and music was my first decision on a major in college before becoming active in the Early Childhood Education program at Cleveland State University. I look forward to seeing and meeting new Primrose families as well as watch our current Primrose families learn, expand and grow in their time with us.

Meet Joe and Chrissy Kepley, proud Franchise Owners of the Primrose School of Broadview Heights. As parents to two children and longtime residents of the Cleveland area, they are thrilled to bring the Primrose Experience® of premier early childhood education and care to families in the Brecksville and Broadview Heights communities.The Kepleys first discovered Primrose Schools while searching for child care for their daughters. It was difficult for them to find a healthy, safe and loving environment that also provided a high-quality education experience. After touring a Primrose school and learning more about Primrose’s approach to child care, the Kepleys knew they had found what they were looking for.“When we found Primrose Schools, we were immediately drawn to the quality of care and the community created by the school,” said Chrissy. “We loved that the Primrose Balanced Learning® approach helps children grow academically, physically, socially and emotionally. Every aspect is designed intentionally, from the curriculum that combines purposeful play with nurturing guidance to the Balanced Menu that helps children develop lifelong healthy habits.”Both Joe and Chrissy are excited to serve local families by opening their Primrose school. Joe grew up in nearby Bath, Ohio, and attended the Max M. Fisher College of Business at The Ohio State University. Chrissy attended the University of Michigan and Case Western Reserve School of Dental Medicine, and completed her dental residency at Northwestern University. Joe and Chrissy met in a coffee shop, and after they married and Chrissy started her own dental practice, the couple knew they would someday embark on owning a business together.At the Primrose School of Broadview Heights, Joe will manage the day-to-day operations of the school, and Chrissy looks forward to coordinating community engagement events and organizing school events for the children and their families. The Kepleys will also continue to be involved in the Brecksville and Broadview Heights communities.They are involved members of their children’s parent and school organizations, while Chrissy is an active member of the Brecksville-Broadview Heights Preschool Mothers' Club.Their daughters now Primrose graduates, were the first students enrolled in the after-school Explorer Program at Primrose School of Broadview Heights and will spend many of their summer breaks in the Summer Adventure Club. “We discovered Primrose while looking for care for our own children, and I immediately knew it was the perfect fit,” said Joe. “We are so excited to ease the strain on working parents, and we are committed to building a strong sense of community around our school to support our students and their families.”
