Mrs. Buck:  My name is Taylor Buck and this is my 8th year at Garden Lakes and my 7th in Pre-K! I received my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education from Shorter University and I recently received my Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education from Piedmont College. I love making learning fun and engaging, and I'm excited for another great year!  Mrs. Phillips in my parapro.

Mrs. Nancoo: Hi! My name is Ansley Nancoo. I'm one of the Pre-K teachers at GLES. I graduated from Shorter College in 2009 with my Bachelors in Early Childhood Education. I continued my education at Piedmont College by obtaining my Master's Degree in Teaching in 2013. I also finished my Reading Endorsement in 2017. I've taught Pre-K for 13 years, and I also taught one year in Kindergarten. Pre-K definitely has a special place in my heart, and it's one of my biggest passions.  Mrs. Flinchbaugh is my parapro. 

Mrs. Thomas:   I am Kristin Thomas and have been working in education for over ten years including five years at PALS preschool in Rome and four at GLES.  I have a B.A. from Hope College and am currently pursuing a master's at Augusta University.  This is my second year as lead Pre-K teacher and I am super excited to be part of this wonderful team!  Mrs. Watford, Mrs. Raines, and Mrs. Forsyth (left to right) will join me as parapros.
