Pre-Kindergarten (A.M. and P.M.):
Mrs. Linda Paige

I’m excited to be teaching Pre-Kindergarten (Pre-K) at All Saints. I love All Saints School and its focus on faith and excellence in academics.

My teaching philosophy emphasizes the following:

• Ensuring that your child enjoys their first year of school and understands what they need to do to be a successful learner.
• Providing an academic foundation for Kindergarten - Despite their young age, Pre-K students are capable of learning a great deal.
• Involving the parents in the educational process - Our church teaches that parents are the first teachers of their children, and I want to support you in that role.

Pre-K is the foundation of your child’s academic experience, and this is why my program emphasizes preparing children for successful academics. Each child comes to Pre-K with a different base of knowledge. I try to tailor the classroom experience for each child so that they can rise to the next level. Using developmentally appropriate methods, and emphasizing experience – children learn best by doing – our classroom will make sure that your child’s first year of school at All Saints is fun and productive. My goal is to foster in your child a love of learning.

I graduated from Western Washington University with a Bachelor of Arts in Teaching, a focus in Reading and a minor in Spanish. I began teaching in 1993 in grades one and three for the Auburn School District. I've been teaching Pre-K at All Saints since 2005.

My husband and I have been active members of All Saints Parish since 1994. Our daughters attend All Saints School and really enjoy it. Our family enjoys gardening, hiking, and spending time together.
