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. Austin
I have been attending the University of Nebraska at Omaha and, most recently, Bellevue University where I am studying Education. I have also completed a Child Development Associate (CDA) credential. I believe my purpose in life is to serve vulnerable beings, such as children. I love the innocence and genuineness of children. As a teacher, I am highly patient and responsive to children’s needs. I love that there is an educational focus at Primrose.
Ms. Griffin
I am from Fort Pierce, Florida and recently moved to Omaha to be near my sister and her family. I have my associate’s degree in psychology and am working towards my bachelor’s degree. I have experience working with children with challenging behaviors, in group homes, and in foster care. I love learning about children and their individual personalities. I am very compassionate and patient and look forward to working with each child in a way that suits them and their development best. I look forward to building connections and being a part of the overall success of the Primrose team!
