Franchise Owners
Ed and Marta Guevara
We are Ed and Marta Guevara we are so proud to be part of the American dream by
owning two Primrose Schools.
Ed is from Venezuela and Marta is from Cuba. We came to this country many years ago
and started out in the restaurant industry, with lots of hard work and dedication we
became owners of Primrose School of Longwood in 2012. We then purchased Primrose
School of Julington Creek and St. Johns Forest in 2016 and currently own these 2
schools in the Jacksonville area. Primrose Schools is the leader in early education and
we believe it’s like no other in the industry and that is why we wanted to be a part of it.
Primrose Schools not only has provided our family with a great income, but as an
owner we are also part of the future of the children in our community and that make us
very happy. In our free time we love to go camping as much as possible with our two
children who are now married and are starting new families of their own.

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

What curriculum or educational philosophy do you follow?

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.
