During her time leading Pre-K she has shown dedication and hard work for the school and for her position. Although we have thoroughly enjoyed having her here, unfortunately Marie will be leaving us as of November 11th, 2025. Please see a message from her below:

‍Hello Joy Families,

Before anything else, I would like to sincerely thank you for welcoming me so warmly when I joined Joy to the World. The relationships we’ve built during this short but truly meaningful time have made my experience here incredibly special, which makes it even more difficult to share that, due to health reasons, I will be leaving Joy to take some time to rest.

I will always cherish the wonderful memories and the joy of watching your children grow and learn each day. It has been an honor to be part of their journey, even for a little while.

Please continue to support the amazing team at Joy to the World.

With heartfelt appreciation,
Marie

For the Pre-K, Austin and Aina are looking forward to taking over the class as a team! Austin will be leading the class each day and planning curriculum while Aina looks forward to being the main point of communication with families. For our AE Earth class Austin (who has already lead the class in the past) looks forward to returning to our Afterschool Elementary program!

Thank you again Marie and best of luck in the future ✨
