Mrs. Kaufmann is excited to be in the classroom for her fifth year at Trinity Lutheran Preschool for the 2021-2022 School-year. Amy seeks to provide a safe and nurturing Christian environment that promotes a broad spectrum of support for each child's physical, social, emotional, cognitive and spiritual development. In her academic and play based classroom, children are introduced to a variety of activities and experiences resulting in learning that is fun. The Little Lambs Bible and Jolly Phonics curriculums are used to enhance instruction.
