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. Nancy Khaisir
Hi! This is Nancy Khaisir and it is my first year at Primrose School as a Pre-K teacher. Previously, I had taught Kindergarten for a year which opened a world full of fun and learning opportunities. Every day is a new adventure to teach and learn from kids, which makes my job even more exciting. I love teaching kids and watching them grow in their own space. My favorite part about teaching is having the kids explore, learn through play, and art. My academic background is a Master’s in Business Administration. I’m a mom of two amazing, lovely boys. We love spending time together as a family watching movies, playing games, trying out different cuisines and traveling. I am always game for singing and dancing and my hobbies are gardening and painting.
