TEACHERS & STAFF

Mrs. Sarah Holy - Director

I am so excited to begin my second school year here at the Springs preschool. I have worked in child care for over 10 years from infants through pre-k. I have been an aid and lead teacher and absolutely love teaching children. What I love most about our school is that we get to share God with your children. I Have been married for 7 years and we have 2 amazing children ages 5 and 3. A few fun facts about me: I start each day with an iced coffee, I have been in Arizona since I was 3 years old, I love a good steak, and we have 2 cats named Shriya and Kitty, and a Dog named Molly. My journey here to The Springs Preschool was something only God could have put together. I feel very blessed to be here and will continuously strive for our school to fill the needs of the families here.

Hi my name is Kristin!
I am new to Arizona and although it’s hot I’m loving the beauty of desert life! Before living here, I was in Guadalajara, MX for two and a half years where I worked at a Christian school serving as a library assistant, substitute teacher, and academic coordinator assistant. I served in my local church’s nursery and taught English online to children in China.
I have a bachelor’s degree in Business Communication with a minor in Spanish. I directed a youth choir for 4 years and will definitely be incorporating lots of music along with some basic Spanish into my time with your kiddos!
I am so excited to for this new opportunity to serve at The Springs Pre-School

Hi, my name is Abby. I am a junior at Arizona Christian University and I am majoring in Family Studies. I have been working here at The Springs Preschool for a year now but worked 2 years previously at Joyful Beginnings Academy. In my spare time, I enjoy playing games, hiking, and visiting my sisters. As an educator, I am part of your kids’ daily lives and routines and I am blessed to have the opportunity to teach them through a Biblical worldview; to see God’s hand through history, His miracles in science, His order in math, His beauty in art and music. I am so excited to see what God has planned for us this school year! :)

Children have always been my passion and I pursued it and went to college. I graduated from Arizona State University with Bachelors degree in Elementary Education.
A fun fact about myself is I love traveling. One goal of mine is to visit all 50 states.
