4 Year Old Preschool Program
4 Day 4's

Misty Jorgenson comes to us from the Lone Star state of Texas. Team teaching this year with Mrs. Heather, Misty is beginning her third year in KinderPrep's 4 day 4's program. As a Coast Guard wife of almost 20 years, Misty has had many jobs (including zoo attendant!), but always ends up back in education. In addition to her husband and teenage daughter, Misty loves reading, walking, biking, meeting new people and traveling. Philippians 4:6
Heather Dreese moves this year from teaching 3's to teaching 4's, making her ideally suited to know exactly what her 4's should already know. Hailing from central Pennsylvania, the Navy brought Heather to our area, and we hope will allow us to keep her for a few more years! Heather loves cooking and trying new recipes and evidently loves traveling too as she has traveled to 25 of our 50 states. Hebrews 13:5b-6

Michelle Dreese is begining her third year at KinderPrep where her teacher and special education background will be put to good use. Originally from Pennsylvania, Michelle is another staff member "on loan" to us from the military. Michelle and her husband have moved 10 times in the past 17 years and lived in 6 different states. When she's not packing or unpacking boxes, Michelle loves camping with her family, reading and scrap booking. Yes, Ms. Michelle and Ms. Heather D. are related; they are sisters-in-law! 1 Corinthians 13:13

Natalie Butler enters her forth year at KinderPrep returning to the 4s program, as Mrs. Michelle's teaching partner. A northern girl from Massachusetts, Natalie moved to Virginia as a teenager. Natalie enjoys sitting down with a good book and enjoying a warm cup of tea. Natalie tells us that she knows sign language, and I know we will be able to put that skill to good use this year. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Barbara is now in her seventh full time year at KinderPrep and will be team teaching with Mrs. Amy. This year Barbara, along with her partner Amy, will be heading up the "Search and Teach" program. As a military child, Barbara says she grew up all over, but when she claims a place, she claims Hawaii. In her free time, Barbara loves to read! Did you know that Barbara rode horses competitively for eight years? Isaiah 40:31

Amy DeRaps comes to us from Augusta, Maine. Beginning her 4th year at KinderPrep, Amy will be teaching with Barbara in the 4 day 4's. This year Amy, along with her partner Barbara, will be heading up the "Search and Teach" program. Spending time with her three boys and husband is her very favorite thing to do. Amy also loves to travel, which comes in handy since she has lived in 5 states and 3 different countries! John 3:16-17
