Stacie and Joe Bryant Rick and Stacy Schroder

Welcome to Primrose School at Pelham!

As the proud owner and operator, Stacie Bryant and her husband, Joe Bryant – along with co-owners, Rick and Stacy Schroder – we are excited you are interested in our school! As working parents ourselves, we understand the difficulty of entrusting our children to someone else’s care during our workday, especially during these important formative years. Our goal at Primrose School at Pelham, is to provide parents with an environment where they can feel good about leaving their children, knowing their little ones are receiving the best quality of care and education.

Meet the Bryant Family –
Stacie and Joe have three children, two teenage sons and a teenage daughter. Stacie has been in the childcare industry for more than 15 years in various roles as a Teacher, Assistant Director and most recently as a Director. After time well spent with her family at home she has decided to get back to her passion for education and launch Primrose School at Pelham. Joe is a managing principal for a local civil engineering firm SeamonWhiteside and is eager to support the Primrose School at Pelham team in its growth. Stacie and Joe both moved around a lot growing up, and after meeting at Clemson University, eventually settled in Greenville to raise their family.

Meet the Schroder Family –

Rick and Stacy Schroder are parents of three beautiful girls, all of which are still in their preschool years. Rick works with Joe at SeamonWhiteside and Stacy is a Nurse Practitioner at Peterson Dermatology. Rick and Joe’s work connection created a strong personal friendship between the Bryant and Schroder families, and from there Primrose School at Pelham was created. Rick was born and raised in Greenville and went to school at Auburn University. Stacy, originally from Alabama attended Jacksonville State University for her undergraduate degree and earned a master’s degree in Nursing from South University. After meeting through mutual friends, Stacy decided to leave her home state and settle in Greenville with Rick.

Who children become is as important as what they know is a belief that is at the core of Primrose Schools Balanced Learning® curriculum. This exclusive early learning approach balances purposeful play with nurturing guidance from teachers to encourage curiosity, creativity, confidence and compassion. We deliver more than a curriculum; it’s a life-changing early learning experience for children and their families.

We are so excited for this opportunity and cannot wait to meet all our new families and to share our excitement with the Greenville community!

Frequently Asked Questions

Are all staff members background-checked and CPR/first-aid certified?

Yes. Every Primrose staff member undergoes a thorough background check before joining our school. All staff are also CPR and firstaid certified, so you can feel confident your child is in safe, prepared hands every day.

What curriculum or educational philosophy do you follow?

Our school uses the proprietary Primrose Schools Balanced Learning® curriculum, which is research-informed and designed to nurture the whole child — intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically. We believe in balancing teacher-guided learning with purposeful play to build a strong foundation for the future.

How do you support school readiness and the transition to kindergarten? 

All of our programs are designed in age-appropriate ways to prepare children for kindergarten and beyond. We focus on early literacy and numeracy as well as social-emotional skill development — so children arrive at kindergarten confident and ready to thrive. 96% of Primrose Schools Pre-K students met ASQ benchmarks for problem solving.*

What are your hours of operation? 

We are open Monday through Friday from 6:30 am-6:00 pm.

How do you keep parents informed about their child's day?

Connecting school to home is one of the ways we help children thrive. We use the Procare app to share daily updates and photos so you stay connected to your child’s joy, learning and special moments

What security measures are in place at drop-off and pick-up?

The safety of your child is our top priority. Our school uses a secure keypad entry system, and only authorized individuals are permitted to pick up your child.

How do you handle staff training and ongoing education?

All of our teachers and staff members are required to complete annual professional development training, including first-aid and CPR certification, child development coursework and curriculum workshops. We also host monthly in-house training sessions where our team collaborates on best practices and stays current with the latest research in early childhood education. We believe that investing in our staff leads to a better experience for every child in our care.

Do you offer after school care for elementary-aged children?

Yes, we offer after school care for children in kindergarten through 5th grade, available from dismissal until 6:00 PM on school days. Our program provides a structured yet relaxed environment where children can complete homework with staff support, enjoy a healthy snack and participate in enrichment activities and free play. Contact our office to learn about availability and pricing. We pick up from the following schools: Buena Vista Elementary, Brushy Creek Elementary, Green Charter (Pelham), Mitchell Road Elementary, and Pelham Road Elementary.

Do you offer parent-teacher conferences or progress updates?

We hold regular parent-teacher conferences and provide ongoing communication about your child’s development so you feel like a true partner in your child’s growth. This includes using Ages & Stages Questionnaires®, normed academic measures and Evidence of Learning Portfolios to track your child’s progress so we can personalize their learning experience.

What is your sick child policy?

We ask that children stay home for at least 24 hours if they have a fever, are vomiting or show symptoms of a contagious illness. This helps keep our entire school community healthy. If your child becomes ill during the day, we will contact you promptly.

How do you accommodate children with allergies or special medical needs?

Health and safety is our top priority, and we work closely with families to accommodate allergies and medical needs. We ask that parents provide detailed information during enrollment so we can create a safe plan for their child. All Primrose schools are nut-free facilities. Our school provides nutritious meals and snacks, and it’s all included in tuition.

What is your policy for school closures?

We follow a structured calendar with planned days off communicated in advance for the year. For any unexpected closures — including weather-related closures — we will communicate them as early as possible through Procare.

Do you offer a summer program?

Yes! In addition to our year-round classrooms for children ages 0–5, we offer Summer Adventure Club for elementary school students in kindergarten through 5th grade.
