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.
Nurturing Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts

I’m Sunny. I wanted to tell you a little about myself.
I just moved to Murfreesboro in December but was born in Dickson. I grew up as a military child and lived all over the U.S., including Hawaii. I recently got engaged and live with my fiancé and our kitten, Myrkul. In my free time I love to write, especially with my fiancé who has published two books. One was written full of poetry about me. I listen to all kinds of music and play guitar. I also spend a lot of time folding origami. I collect hot wheels, something I never grew out of. I also know tons of space facts! I have been working in childcare for over a year and love every bit of it! I cannot wait to see what this year brings!
