Our Leadership Team back
We are very proud of our leadership team at Bethel Lutheran Preschool. Mrs. Brown, our director is very in tune with the needs of the children placed in her care, the parents, as well as the faculty and staff. Mrs. Brown has taught at Bethel for a number of years and has had experiences as a teacher and as a parent for every age group at Bethel. These experiences provide her with a unique understanding and perspective to be an even better leader.
