Mrs. Carolyn Flowers
Hello and welcome to our class!
I am excited to be one of your child’s PreK4 co-teachers this school year. Throughout my career, I have been involved in the education and care of infants as young as 6 weeks old to teaching children in 3rd grade. As an educator, my purpose is to provide critical foundational skills to our youngest scholars, for overall success in their educational journey. This year brings many new opportunities. As we partner together, we can make it one of the best years yet!
Every child has the right to be RESPECTED,
the right to DREAM,
the right to be LOVED and CARED for,
....gifts that should be RECOGNIZED and VALUED
...the right to ACHIEVE their given POTENTIAL
....the need for UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

Mrs. Danielle Kirkpatrick
Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year at Richton Square. I am returning as a co-teacher in the full-day preschool classroom, as well as, the resource teacher. Pre-K is an important time in a child’s life as rapid growth and development are taking place. It is my educational philosophy that each child is unique and needs a secure, loving and individualized foundation from which he/she can explore the world about him/her. I look forward to working with each student and guiding them towards success.
Any questions, comments or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
