I am blessed to have Siobhan Clancy 'Miss Siobhan' as my full day
paraprofessional and partner in all classroom activities. She is a
nurturing, interactive and fun lady who has many years experience with the
preschool. Jim Franklin, 'Mr. Jim' is with us in the AM sessions to assist
with individuals who require extra support. He worked with me last year and
knows the classroom routines and expectations well. We also have 'Miss
Samantha', our wonderful intern who assist in the classroom and cover for
Miss Hane in case of meetings/ homevisits.
Together we will ensure a safe and loving environment for your child!

objectives set on their IEP.
*To provide an enriched environment for role model peer playmates and
enhance their patience, empathy and diversity skills towards children with
