Our Preschool Pathways Classroom
Our Preschool Pathways program provides a “bridge” between our Early Preschool and Preschool classrooms for children whose birthdays will ultimately miss the cutoff date for kindergarten entrance. By identifying those children early, we can help them stay with a consistent group of peers through preschool, pre-K and kindergarten.

Our Preschool Pathways Classroom Teachers & Staff
Ms. Brooke McInnes
I am the Preschool Pathways teacher. I have three years of childcare experience and have had the honor of being in this classroom for the past year. I have one son, Dahmir, and three dogs: Roxy, Earl, and Willow. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, swimming, reading books, and spending time in nature. My favorite part of working in childcare is seeing the children’s faces light up when they achieve a goal. Watching each child grow and reach their milestones is truly heartwarming. Thank you for allowing and trusting me to be a part of your children’s days and lives. It is something I truly cherish.
