The Primrose School of Wade Green is owned and operated by Michelle Rath who is a native of Cobb County, Georgia. I have three children who are all Primrose graduates and currently attend The Walker School in Marietta. I believe Primrose set the foundation for learning and allowing my own children to excel as they have continued their educational experiences beyond Kindergarten at Primrose.

Here at Primrose School of Wade Green, we are committed to providing a safe, secure, nurturing learning environment in our preschool that instills a love of learning and positive self-esteem in every child.

Our management and I work closely to ensure that each child receives the best care both physically and emotionally as well as a strong foundation in education. Please come visit our Kennesaw campus. We are committed to providing our families and the community we serve with the best and most trusted early childhood education possible.
