MEET OUR KINDERGARTEN TEACHERS

MEET MRS. AMBRIELLE
KINDERGARTEN LEAD TEACHER

Welcome to kindergarten! This is going to be such an exciting year, and I’m looking forward to being your teacher!


I was a teacher for five years and then took some time off to stay home with my three boys. I have a degree in elementary education from Missouri State University with an emphasis on Missouri conservation. My family loves to be outside fishing, playing, and going for walks!


Kindergarten is such a milestone year, and I hope to create a fun, structured environment filled with excitement for learning! I know God has big plans for each student and I can’t wait to encourage them! I have a love for teaching and I’m excited to be back in the classroom this year!

MEET MRS. DESTINY
KINDERGARTEN ASST. TEACHER

I am a senior at Missouri State University studying to be a Speech Language Pathologist with a minor in American Sign Language. After completing my masters degree I hope to work in a clinical setting.


I am a part of The Vine college ministry with Second Baptist. I was in choir for 6 years and am now a part of the worship team with The Vine!


This is my third year as the Assistant in Kindergarten and I am so excited to spend time in with the kiddos this year!
