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. Baharak Askari
Let’s get to know each other.
I’m Baharak. I wanted to tell you a little about myself.
I have seven years of experience in child care and teaching, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Management. One of my favorite things about working with children is the sense of peace I feel in their presence. I especially enjoy reading Pete the Cat: We’re Better Together with them—it’s a fun and meaningful story that encourages friendship and cooperation.
Christmas is my favorite holiday, and my family also celebrates Nowruz, which brings a special cultural richness to our home. One of our favorite traditions is going on picnics together. At home, we speak Farsi, Turkish, and English, and we share our space with our cat, Budha. In my personal time, I enjoy reading, swimming, and taking walks.
I can’t wait to learn more about you and your family.
Ms. Suchitra Nunekoppula
Let’s get to know each other.
I’m Suchitra. I wanted to tell you a little about myself.
I earned my Master of Science in Environmental Sciences from Osmania University in India. In my free time, I enjoy painting nature scenes, cooking Indian cuisine, and writing.
What I’m most looking forward to in the classroom is sharing my love for art—especially creating cartoon-style paintings and artwork that kids will love and enjoy!
I can’t wait to learn more about you and your family.
