Primrose School would love to meet your family.
Schedule A TourThe Helping Hands event for February was Og's Bountiful Books! Primrose families spent the month donating new and/or gently used books, which we collected in an effort to further promote literacy throughout our community and donate them to our friends at Mothers Helping Mothers of Manatee County.
On March 1st, the Private Kindergarten class enjoyed spending the morning at Barnes and Nobel in celebration of Read Across America Day!
The challenges that preschoolers face, such as learning to take turns on the slide at recess, can sometimes seem miniscule to adults.
The Primrose Explorers after-school students prepared hot chocolate packets and sold them in an effort to raise money to purchase food and treats for furry friends at the Humane Society of Sarasota County. The students raised $273 in total. We are so very proud of our Explorers students!
WOW! Our Private Kindergarten students raised a class total of $322.00 by conducting age-appropriate chores at home! Every penny earned was spent at Publix on their field trip this morning, purchasing non-perishable foods for our community friends who are less fortunate this holiday season. With shopping lists, calculators and money in hands, they were busy shoppers, but they also enjoyed a "behind the scenes" tour of Publix, to include petting a live lobster! We are all beyond proud of you and you should be very proud of yourselves!!
“She needs the pink sparkly one.” “Stop wrestling around with her like she’s a boy.” “That’s a boys’ toy.”
The Kindergarten students enjoyed one of their most favorite field trips of the year, Hunsader Farms! They enjoyed petting the farm animals, a hay ride, picking pumpkins and playing on the playground! This is a great way to enjoy Florida fall fun!
Proudly cladding child-created costumes and accessories, Primrose students paraded through the playground and joined in unity singing "It's a Small World". All in an effort to promote diversity and celebrate cultures all around the world.
It’s no secret that bilingualism is becoming more common among today’s children.

The Private Kindergarten students visited The Windsor at Lakewood Ranch today. As part or our Adopt-a-Grandparent program, the students kick off the school year meeting their new friends by doing crafts together and getting to know one another! The students and residents continue their friendship throughout the school year with additional visits during the holidays, Valentine's Day, etc...The students and residents both really enjoy the special times together!
Look how proud our students are in Pre-K and Explorers! They made these adorable "Huge Hug" banners for their Primrose Pal, Maltese, who lives in West Virginia! No better gift than a collaborative hug from twenty-four loving, adorable children!
Teaching a child to tie her shoes is an important developmental milestone – parents dream of the day that securing sneakers onto a squirming toddler is no longer a part of their morning routine.
The Primrose Private Kindergarten Class celebrated National Read Across America Day at Barnes and Noble Bookstore. It was such a fun field trip where the students enjoyed touring the bookstore, making crafts, having a story read to them and even reading another story on the giant Nook!
A HUGE thank you to all of our very generous families for donating all of the wonderful books! Thanks to you, many less fortunate children right here in our community will be able to enjoy these books free of charge through the wonderful Mothers Helping Mothers organization! We donated a total of 510 books which is 100 more than last year! We truly cannot thank you enough for your tremendous support and generosity! Og’s Bountiful Books, a reading program that is part of the Primrose Promise Giving portion of our Balanced Learning curriculum which includes the book donation drive, purposefully aligned with the National Education Association’s Red Across America Day on March 2nd. Thank you again for making this very worthwhile event such a huge success!
It's a fact: children learn better when they are engaged. That's why purposeful play and nurturing guidance from teachers are key components of Balanced Learning. See how this time-tested approach with a strong emphasis on life skills and character development can help your child develop and excel.
The Primrose Kindergarten students celebrated the upcoming holiday with our favorite friends, the residents at the Windsor! They all sang holiday carols together, played bingo and decorated cookies! As always, it was a great visit!
On behalf of our Primrose families and staff, I was very honored to deliver all of the generous, wonderful presents to the Salvation Army for our three adopted families. Our three families consisted of ten children total. Each child received four presents from their wish list as well as a clothing outfit and shoes - Sixty presents altogether! All of you were so considerate and generous with your gift choices and we can only imagine the smiles on the beautiful faces of each of these children as they open these wonderful gifts thanks to you all! Every year we feel very honored to have this wonderful opportunity to reach out to our own community, to those who are less fortunate. Every year our families and staff go above and beyond graciously supporting this very worthwhile initiative and we cannot thank you enough. We are all so very blessed in so many ways and there is no better feeling knowing that you contributed to making a child's holiday very special. We all know what a blessed and joyous holiday it will be for Natalie, Kimberly, Adriel, Aleyshka, Hilary, Gizelle, Kevin, Amber, Sarah and Christina! A very, very heartfelt thank you for everything you all do! We could not be more blessed with this wonderful Primrose Family!
