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 school is committed to high standards of safety and cleanliness as we create a caring and nurturing environment where children can thrive.

  • Frequent disinfecting and sanitizing of high-touch toys
  • Frequent handwashing by children and staff, which is embedded in our curriculum and daily staff protocols
  • Training teachers on common signs of illness in children, and placing signage in every classroom to keep signs of illness top of mind
  • Daily laundering of crib sheets for infants; for older children, individual cots and blankets are provided for each child and laundered weekly
  • Ensuring appropriate teacher-student classroom ratios
  • Continuous health & safety training for our staff, including first aid and CPR certification
  • Maintaining an up-to-date and customized Safe School Plan posted in all classrooms for easy teacher access

Lisa Bishop
Lead Preschool Pathways Teacher

Hello! My name is Lisa Bishop and I am proud to be the Preschool Pathways teacher at Primrose School of the Lakes at Blaine!

My favorite aspect of our Balanced Learning Curriculum is how hands on it is for the children, from the materials the children can explore and work with to the Primrose Friends being apart of teaching. The children love the interaction with the Primrose puppet characters.

I love our school environment because I absolutely love watching my daughter and grandson grow and learn in an environment where we know they are loved, safe and cared for. I also love watching them form the friendships with their peers. I also think our leadership team, staff, kids and our families are the best!
