TEACHER
Aubrie Baker, our kindergarten teacher, is a graduate of the University of Alabama with a BS degree in Early Childhood Education (prek-3rd grade).
She is originally from Birmingham, Alabama where she taught exceptional education in a resource classroom for grades k-3 at Clay Elementary for 2 years, and then moved to Georgia and taught in a self-contained Autism unit at Belwood Elementary School.
She is also involved in the children’s ministry at Cornerstone Church of Rome teaching in the Elementary classroom for grades 1-5.
We limit our class to 16 children, with one teacher and one teacher’s aide.
Our primary goal is to prepare children for success in first grade.
We cover all the Georgia standards for Kindergarten and use DIBELS testing, the same assessment used by both Rome City and Floyd County Schools.
We also provide a gap-year Kindergarten for children with summer birthdays.
Our half-day program with small class size and hands-on learning give younger children an extra year to mature while still being challenged.
And for families who plan to homeschool:
PALS kindergarten provides an excellent educational foundation, upon which parents can build.
