Primrose School of Five Forks selects Ms. Plaisted as the Teacher of the Month for November!

Ms. Plaisted is the Assistant Teacher in our Private Kindergarten classroom.  She is the daughter of Gary and Nancy Plaisted and the sister of Nick, Lauren (twin) and Nicole.  Ms. Plaisted was born and raised in Lawrenceville, GA and graduated from Central Gwinnett High School.  She received her undergraduate degree from Kennesaw State University and went on to pursue her Masters in the Art of Teaching degree from Georgia College and State University.

Primrose School of Five Forks is the first time Ms. Plaisted has experienced the joy of being in her own classroom and she loves every moment!  During her college career, she completed an internship at the YMCA working summer camps and also student teaching in an elementary school and in a high school.

One of Ms. Plaisted’s favorite hobbies is playing tennis!  She has also recently started scrapbooking.  She and her boyfriend, Harris Bristow, became parents this July to the adorable Ayden Kai.  He has made their lives so full and they love him with all of their hearts.  It is also a blessing to have him here at Primrose! 

When Ms. Plaisted attended her little sister, Nicole’s basketball game a few years ago, she decided that she wanted to become a teacher.  She loved watching the interaction the coaches had with all of the players and what a positive impact they had on their lives.  That is when she decided to go back to school to pursue a teaching career.
