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
Chasity Smith
Hi I’m Chasity Smith. I am a loving parent of a little girl who is my biggest motivation in life. I found my passion for children when I attended a program in high school that allowed us to teach students in an elementary school. I knew Primrose would be the perfect place to continue my interest in teaching and have been here since 2022. I am currently attending college to further my degree in childcare education. I love the feeling of seeing the light bulb go off in the child when they understand the material I am teaching them. The best feeling to me is knowing I am helping children grow and develop their minds.
Stephanie Ramirez
I’m Ms. Stephanie. My Primrose journey began in January of 2017. When I first started working, my students were my only “kids”, but now my sons Isaiah and Ezekiel have joined the Primrose family too! I love working with children and being part of helping them grow and learn. In PreK, the development we see from the start of the school year to the end is incredible. Guiding their growth in language, math concepts, social interactions, and science is a privilege as their teacher!
Maite Arce de Fonfria
Hi, my name is Maite! I am originally from Venezuela. My husband and I came to Texas in 2015. My background is in architectural design and real estate, but working with children bring me joy every day. I have been working in early childcare education for 8 years. I love the classroom environment and getting to be part of this special time in my students’ lives. I appreciate that the Balanced Learning Curriculum at Primrose brings diversity and enrichment to the learning experience for our students – and I get to learn from it, too!
In my personal time, I enjoy spending time with my friends, arts & crafts, and outdoor activities – especially going to the beach!
