My name is Jaqueline. I’ve been working with kids for more than 3 years. I graduated high school in 2020. My favorite thing about working with kids is seeing their smile in the morning and giving them, giving them a big hug, and seeing them learn every day.

Pre-Kindergarten (4–5 Years)
Our Pre-Kindergarten Program is designed to ensure every child enters kindergarten with the confidence, knowledge, and skills needed for lifelong success. At Primrose School of Winfield, we believe every child learns differently, which is why we use Renaissance Star Early Literacy® assessments to identify each student's strengths and areas for growth.
Assessment data drives our small-group, differentiated instruction, allowing our teachers to meet children where they are academically and intentionally move them forward. Whether a child is building foundational skills or ready for advanced challenges, instruction is personalized to maximize growth and prepare them for kindergarten success.
Our commitment to data-informed instruction produces exceptional results. In 2026, our Pre-K students earned an average Star Early Literacy Grade Equivalent (GE) score of 1.7. This means the average student performed at a level comparable to a student in the seventh month of first grade on the same assessment—a reflection of the high expectations, intentional instruction, and individualized support found in our classrooms.
In addition to strong literacy and math instruction, children participate in STEM investigations, creative arts, music, physical development, and social-emotional learning. Through leadership opportunities, project-based learning, and purposeful play, students develop the executive functioning, problem-solving, and collaboration skills that prepare them not only for kindergarten—but for a lifetime of learning.
At Primrose School of Winfield, our goal isn't simply kindergarten readiness—it's helping every child discover their full potential.
Building Big Ideas: Exploring STEAM & Spatial Thinking 🏠✨
Our Pre-K students bring their ideas to life through hands-on STEAM exploration—designing and building homes while learning to map, plan, and understand space. These meaningful experiences help develop critical thinking and spatial awareness in creative, engaging ways. 🏠✨
