Our Pre-Kindergarten Classroom
Primrose® introduces and reinforces new information through playful exploration, teacher-guided inquiry and rich discussion as they help foster Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts®. Your child will have fun every day as they play and learn important academic skills, social skills and more, because when they are mentally, physically and emotionally ready to learn a skill, they develop mastery.

Our Pre-Kindergarten Classroom Teachers & Staff
Ms. Debashree
Hello! I’m Ms. Debashree, Pre-Kindergarten Co-Lead Teacher. I have a Master’s Degree in Education and many years of experience working with young children. I am proud to teach our Pre-K students as we get ready for kindergarten!
I enjoy teaching our Balanced Learning curriculum, as I enjoy watching children learn through play.
My favorite children’s book is, “Are You My Mother?”.
In my spare time, I like to cook and read a good book.
I look forward to meeting you and your family!
Ms. Kimberly
Hi! My name is Kimberly Herrell. I have been teaching for over 10 years and have had the wonderful opportunity to work in daycares, private schools, and public-school districts. I hold a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education and have two New Jersey teaching licenses—one for Preschool through 3rd grade and another for kindergarten through 6th grade.
Teaching is one of my greatest passions in life. I truly can’t imagine a better way to spend each day than playing, singing, creating crafts, and discovering new things alongside my favorite kind of people—children!
I look forward to a great school year with you and your child together!
