Franchise Owner
Paul and Leslie Graves
Primrose School of Coppell
Hello, we are Leslie and Paul Graves, the proud on-site owners of the Primrose School of Coppell. We live in Frisco and are Plano natives! We both attended high school in Plano and college in Texas. We have two beautiful daughters, Madison and Abigail. We also own and operate the Primrose School of Stone Brooke in McKinney just right up the road from Coppell and live directly in between the two locations.
As parents we understand the struggle of leaving your children in someone else’s care. We were fortunate enough to know that our children were able to attend a school, another Primrose location in the DFW area, where Leslie was the Executive Director for 5 years. There is no better feeling than this! From this experience it became so important to the both of us that all families should feel that same sense of security for their children when they go to work. We believe that our school is an extension of your child’s family and that we all must work together to create the best environment for them.
Leslie earned her Bachelor of Science degree Early Childhood and Family Studies and has been working with children for over 28 years. She has been a director for private preschools in Austin and began her career in 2006 with Primrose Schools. She has served Primrose as Executive director, Regional Director and Franchise Owner.
Leslie has also taught a combination 1-5th grade all subject TEKS based grade classrooms for at-risk students. In addition to teaching, she has served children working for a private therapeutic foster agency to license foster homes and families. Leslie was a case worker for children in the agency and ensured their well-being and safety while evaluating their care, treatment and placement were in their best interest.
Mrs. Graves is also a Recognized Continued Professional Educational Provider for the State of Texas and a Certified Trainer for Early Childhood Educators through the Texas Education Association and has been training early childhood managers and teachers in this industry since 2001.
Paul is a chiropractor in Frisco and has been in practice and owned his own clinic since 1996 and has been involved with Leslie as a partner since 2017 and is excited to be working with Leslie and the team at Coppell to bring quality childcare to the area!
“We are huge believers in high-quality care and high-quality customer service where we can maintain good relationships. We believe our partnerships with you will be forever valuable and what we pour into our children will leave a lasting impact.”
We welcome you to the Primrose School of Coppell, and if you have not yet joined us, we invite you to come visit our school and see why so many families choose the Primrose School of Coppell for their children’s education and care in Coppell.

Are all staff members background-checked and CPR/first-aid certified?
Yes. Every Primrose staff member undergoes a thorough background check before joining our school. All staff are also CPR and first–aid certified, so you can feel confident your child is in safe, prepared hands every day.
What curriculum or educational philosophy do you follow?
Our school uses the proprietary Primrose Schools Balanced Learning® curriculum, which is research-informed and designed to nurture the whole child — intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically. We believe in balancing teacher-guided learning with purposeful play to build a strong foundation for the future.
How do you support school readiness and the transition to kindergarten?
All of our programs are designed in age-appropriate ways to prepare children for kindergarten and beyond. We focus on early literacy and numeracy as well as social-emotional skill development — so children arrive at kindergarten confident and ready to thrive. 96% of Primrose Schools Pre-K students met ASQ benchmarks for problem solving.*
What are your hours of operation?
We are open Monday through Friday from 6:30 am-6:30 pm.
How do you keep parents informed about their child's day?
Connecting school to home is one of the ways we help children thrive. We use the Procare app to share daily updates and photos so you stay connected to your child’s joy, learning and special moments
Do you offer a summer program?
Yes! In addition to our year-round classrooms for children ages 0–5, we offer Summer Adventure Club for elementary school students in kindergarten through 5th grade. Our summer program uses hands-on activities and rotating weekly themes to keep children engaged while continuing to support their development.
Do you offer live streaming internet cameras in the classrooms?
For the protection and privacy of all children at Primrose Schools, internet cameras are prohibited in the classrooms and on playgrounds during business hours.
We do have cameras monitoring the front entry for safety.
These types of cameras compromise the privacy and autonomy of teachers, children, and parents who frequent the classrooms.
Many parents in our school have a strong preference that their child is not photographed, and we respect that privacy.
Any live feed using the internet could potentially be compromised by someone with ill intent, despite the measures put in place for protection.
Privacy concerns include classrooms with more than one child. If a parent, student, or other adult watch the video, they are seeing more than the “target student,” which can be a privacy violation.
The privacy of a child could be violated depending on who was given access to video recordings. When families experience divorce and/or custody battles, or when circumstances arise that put a student under protective custody, video, or audio evidence of the child in that class could potentially put the child and/or family in danger.
