Welcome to Primrose!We are Christie and Dave New, and we are the proud new owners of the Primrose School at Holly Grove! We are excited to be a part of such a wonderful community and Primrose family! As dual working parents ourselves, we know how important it is to find a loving and safe environment that will nurture your child and provide them with opportunities to develop academically and as a person. Prior to owning a Primrose school, Dave received a bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from Ohio University and has worked in senior management roles most of his career for companies like General Electric and Highland Industries. I earned a bachelor’s degree in Nursing from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana and have worked in the medical industry for more than 20 years in areas of critical care, clinical research and risk management. With a life-long desire to pursue our own business, we found our calling with Primrose! With four girls in high school, we know firsthand the importance of helping children develop a strong character, and we were thrilled to find a school that reflects our beliefs in that. We too have taught our girls “who they become is as important as what they know,” just as Primrose does. We feel very strongly that Primrose Schools Balanced Learning® curriculum offers the perfect formula for a well-rounded program. At the Primrose School at Holly Grove, we are committed to partnering with parents and teachers to nurture and encourage your children to become the best they can be. We feel very strongly that Primrose Schools Balanced Learning® curriculum offers the perfect formula for a well-rounded program.The research-based curriculum blends teacher-guided learning and child-initiated play with a focus on character development to encourage curiosity, creativity, confidence and compassion in all children.We are excited to continue to provide the Holly Springs community with a safe, caring environment where children can grow Active Minds, Healthy Bodies and Happy Hearts®.

We remain committed to providing a clean and safe environment where children can thrive.
