About the Provider

Description: It is my belief as an educator of young children that each child who comes to our program deserves the right to a caring, nurturing environment in which teachers appreciate childhood as a unique and valuable stage of the human life cycle and value the quality of children’s lives in the present, not just as a preparation for the future.It is with these thoughts and beliefs that I will strive to ensure that the Crossett Pre-K Program is a high quality program where each child is loved and respected and given the opportunity to begin to learn how to be a valuable member of society.
