Our Pre-Kindergarten Classroom
Primrose® introduces and reinforces new information through playful exploration, teacher-guided inquiry and rich discussion as they help foster Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts®. Your child will have fun every day as they play and learn important academic skills, social skills and more, because when they are mentally, physically and emotionally ready to learn a skill, they develop mastery.

Our Pre-Kindergarten Classroom Teachers & Staff
Tammy Edwards
Hello! My name is Tammy Edwards. I am a proud mom of two sons, who have blessed me with four wonderful grandchildren. I have been happily married for nearly 32 years. I am currently attending school to earn my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education.
In my classroom, I strive to create a positive and welcoming space where children can explore, learn, and grow through hands-on experiences, play, and meaningful interactions. I am truly excited to get to know you and your family and look forward to working together to help your child thrive.
Darienne McGill
Hello! My name is Darienne McGill and I am proud to be the Pre-Kindergarten teacher at Primrose School of the Lakes at Blaine!
My favorite aspect of our Balanced Learning Curriculum is that it gives the children different opportunities to become life long learners. I love that we get to garden and partner with the community for Adopt a grandparent.
I love our school environment because it is like a family. Most of the staff have been here for a long time. I have watched a lot of my students grow from infants to pre-kindergarten. Seeing them graduate is one of the most rewarding experiences I have had as a teacher.
