Franchise Owner
Becky and Bill Artemis
Welcome to the Primrose School of East Lake!
We are the proud owners Becky and Bill Artemis! Since 2017 when we first became involved with Primrose School at East Lake, myself as the center director and Bill as the chef, we have enjoyed getting to know all our families and children and are so proud of our school! We are continuously amazed at the Primrose approach to education, while providing a nurturing environment for the children in our care.
We are the parents to one daughter who is now grown. We understand the difficulty of finding childcare where parents can feel good about entrusting their care to someone else. I am impressed everyday with the Primrose Balanced Learning Curriculum and we love knowing that we are helping to create a solid foundation in the early education of children. Since family is extremely important to us, we moved to Georgia over 7 years ago to be near them. Bill has his Paramedicine degree from Columbus State College and Becky attended the Ohio State University and the University of Nevada for Business.
We both understand the importance of maintaining a safe and healthy environment in this current climate. Who children become is as important as what they know is a belief that is at the core of our Balanced Learning Approach. Our exclusive early learning approach balances purposeful play with nurturing guidance from teachers to encourage curiosity, creativity, confidence, and compassion. We deliver more than a curriculum; it is a life changing early learning experience for children and their families.
