We are delighted to have your precious children joining our
preschool family. There are already many fun activities planned for the year!
We will begin this month getting to know each other and learning the Highscope
curriculum routines. Allow us to start by introducing ourselves:
Beth Richardson: This is my eighth year teaching at Village
Preschool. I teach both the three-year-old and the four-year-old classes. I
have an Early Childhood and Elementary Education degree from Michigan State
University and a Masters degree in Reading. A long, long time ago I taught
first and third grades in elementary school. My husband, Ralph, and I have
three children – Kelly (27), Katy (21), and Conner (19).
Kate Willaredt: This is my first full year teaching at
Village Preschool. I started in October of last school year and am excited to
be teaching both three-year-olds and four-year-olds again this year! Before I
came to Village, I taught preschool for ten years at Central Early Childhood Center
in Kansas City, Mo. I have an
English Literature BA from UMKC, and this past December, I finished my Masters
degree in Early Childhood Curriculum and Instruction, also from UMKC. My
husband Steve, and I have two children – Lucy (9), and Zoe (7).
Stacey ElAttar: I am excited to begin my 13th year
at Village Preschool, where I have been in the classroom in many capacities! My
daughter Allie is a graduate of Village and currently a sophomore at K-State
majoring in Spanish Education. I always say I brought Allie here at 4 and we
had so much fun, I stayed! I love teaching, cooking, and travel. When not at
work, you will find me at home creating new recipes for my nutrition business.
My darling husband Tawfik and I are enjoying our second year empty nesting,
dining out, and traveling!
Please join us on Tuesday, September 9th from
6:30 – 7:30pm for Back to School Night. At this parent only meeting, you will
get a closer look at exactly what your child’s day entails. You will also be
able to sign up to bring snacks, volunteer to be a room parent, and sign up to
bring supplies for our holiday celebrations. We look forward to seeing you on
the 9th!
We are so excited to be sharing this year with you and your
children!
