December National Teacher of the Month

The Teacher of the Month award is designed to recognize an employee that exemplifies our core values, which are compassion, humility, integrity, loyalty and discipline. This month we are pleased to announce that our 2020 December National Teacher of the Month is Ms. Peggy of Little Sunshine’s Playhouse and Preschool of The Woodlands.

In talking about how Ms. Peggy exemplifies LSP’s core values, Program Director, Ms. Karri said, “Peggy is one of our Ashdown Forest infant teachers. She is hard working and always has fun and engaging lesson plans for her class. Peggy is a team player and is always willing to pitch in to help other teachers. She always does a great job of pumping up other employees around the school and brings so much positivity to our building.  She loves her babies and their parents, and they love her!”
