Hello, Good Shepherd Preschool Families!
Welcome to our preschool's homepage! Let us begin by introducing ourselves. Miss Fajota and Mrs. J are the main teachers here at our preschool. Miss Fajota is our Director as well as our 4-year-old teacher. She has been with Good Shepherd for nine years and has taught preschool for four of those years. She enjoys dancing, listening to music, and volunteering with our church's youth ministry program. Mrs. J teaches the 3-year-old class. She is a former student of Good Shepherd and has worked at the school for almost six years. She has spent three of those years teaching our preschoolers. In her free time, she enjoys going to the beach, spending time with her big family, taking pictures, and volunteering with the youth ministry program. Our teachers also have helpers. Mrs. Kellerman has been here for over seven years as an employee and before that, she had her three sons here at Good Shepherd. Mrs. Reyes has been here for 11 years and has also had three children of her own go through Good Shepherd Catholic School. Mrs. Viloria is currently a parent here at Good Shepherd and just recently was hired to help in the Roo classroom. She has had over 10 years of experience in childhood education. Miss Hougen is new to our team as well and has previously had experience teaching in early childhood education in Arizona. We all love working with preschoolers and seeing them discover the world around them for the first time. We will all be there to help you and your student begin this educational journey! If you ever have any questions, feel free to contact any one of us.
