Primrose School of Hixson and the Primrose School of East Brainerd are owned and operated by Dan Case and Lisa Laplante. Married for over 30 years they are parents of 2 children, Austin and Elizabeth. Before purchasing the schools, Austin attended Primrose Schools starting at 10 weeks and continued until he went to St. Nicholas School. They were thrilled at how loving and caring everyone was at Primrose. As he grew, they were amazed at all he learned on a daily basis. This all came together when he transitioned to St. Nicholas School. They found he had the self confidence and education needed to thrive in his new environment. They knew they had made the right decision in sending Austin to Primrose When they learned that the previous owners wanted to retire, and their second child Elizabeth was on the way, they made 2 big career changes and purchased both schools in Chattanooga. They have now owned the schools for over 20 years, and Primrose has been educating children in Chattanooga for over 29 years. With the curriculum written by Dr. Mary Zurn, and the support from the Primrose Franchise organization the program continues to be the best in the country and The Leader in Educational Childcare. This excellence in curriculum and education is why we were able to earn accreditation from the prestigious Cognia organization. This is the same organization that accredits colleges and schools. At Primrose Schools we have: The right foundation to build Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts‹¢. These programs are available and waiting for you and your child. Call us and let us show you the art of Balanced Learning for your child's future. Dan and Lisa
