Meet the Teachers!

Jag Cubs Preschool Teacher

Mrs. Haleigh Putnam

While your child is in my class they will master their ABC’s and 123’s! Working on all of the basics such as writing their name, learning colors, shapes, and excelling with their fine/gross motor skills! We also take on the challenge of learning Spanish and Sign Language. While all of this is very important we also work on what it means to be a kind and caring friend everyday! Extra curricular activities are also offered such as P.E., music, and library.

Junior Kindergarten Teacher

Ms. Kate Frerking

In a lively junior kindergarten class of 4 to 5-year-olds, children are enthusiastically exploring the foundations of learning. Each day is filled with vibrant activities as they sing songs to memorize their ABCs and 123s, engage in hands-on exercises to identify shapes and colors, and start recognizing simple sight words. Their curiosity deepens as they gather around for storytime, where they discover beloved tales from the Bible, sparking their imagination and moral understanding. With each lesson, they build a joyful foundation for lifelong learning and character development.
