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.

Mrs. George
Hi, my name is Mrs. George, and I was born in Kerala before moving to Minnesota at the age of four. I have been working with children for over 12 years and have developed a deep passion for early childhood education and helping young learners grow. I love creating a warm, supportive, and engaging classroom environment where children feel encouraged to explore, learn, and build confidence every day.
What I enjoy most about teaching is meeting new faces and watching children discover and learn new things each day. Seeing their excitement, curiosity, and personal growth is one of the most rewarding parts of my career. I believe every child deserves patience, encouragement, and meaningful support as they develop socially, emotionally, and academically.
Outside of the classroom, I enjoy spending quality time with my husband of 17 years and our two children. Family is incredibly important to me, and I love bringing the same sense of care, compassion, and connection into my classroom each day.
