“One thing I think is so important for parents to understand is how much of a difference just one year of preschool can make in a child.” — Mrs. Sarah Loyd, Lead PreK Teacher 💙

That year isn’t just about learning rules and routines (although that is a huge bonus!). It’s also about timing. Preschool meets children when their brains are ready to learn and grow in powerful ways.

If you were to walk into one of our kindergarten classrooms on the first day of school, you could easily spot the students who attended our preschool and those who did not. The confidence, readiness, and comfort with learning really stand out.

We’re proud of the strong foundation our PreK program provides for our youngest Warhawks.

Thinking about PreK for your child? Mt. Vernon-Enola PreK registration is now open for the 2026–2027 school year!

Our program focuses on early learning, social development, and helping students feel confident and ready for Kindergarten. We love partnering with families to support each child’s growth from the very beginning.

It’s Teacher Tuesday, and today we’re shining the spotlight on Mrs. Gayla Wade! 💙🍎

If Mrs. Wade could instantly master a new skill, it would be learning to read music. She loves to sing and dreams of playing the guitar or piano someday. Music already plays a big role in her mornings — she listens to Abide by Aaron Williams or Gratitude by Brandon Lake every day on the drive to school to start her day with the right mindset. 🎶

Her dream vacation is Hawaii, where she’d soak up all the beauty nature has to offer, from volcanoes to snorkeling in the ocean and everything in between. 🌺🌊

In the classroom, Mrs. Wade is passionate about helping students grow not just academically, but as people. She focuses on integrity, honesty, and responsibility, reminding her students to tell the truth, take ownership of their actions, and move forward doing their best. Morning affirmations are part of their routine, helping students learn how powerful positive self-talk can be.

What she loves most about being part of the Warhawk Family is the small-town feel — being truly part of a community rather than lost in it — and knowing this school values what really matters.

We’re so thankful for the heart, care, and character Mrs. Wade pours into her students every day.

“One statement that really reflects the Fueling Brains curriculum is, ‘It’s not about what you learn, it’s how you learn.’” — Mrs. Sarah Loyd, Lead PreK Teacher 💙

Fueling Brains focuses on building three key executive functions: working memory, inhibitory control, and cognitive flexibility. These skills help young learners develop self-regulation, problem-solving abilities, critical thinking, and decision-making skills.

At MVE PreK, we are teaching students how to learn before layering in all the academics. This strong foundation is so important as students prepare to enter Kindergarten and beyond. We’re proud of the intentional learning happening in our PreK classrooms every day!

It’s Teacher Tuesday, and today we’re celebrating Mrs. Erin Thomason! 🌊🌮

Mrs. Thomason has lived in six states and attended five schools, so she knows what it’s like to be the new kid. She loves beach days — boogie boarding, kayaking, and relaxing in the waves.

Her favorite classroom moments are when students have those “ah-ha” breakthroughs and their confidence starts to shine.

And if tacos are on the menu, she’s happy! 🌮

Mrs. Thomason loves being a Warhawk and says her whole family is thriving in this community.
