Meet the Teachers
Honeybee Hive
Our Honeybee Hive is thriving and making wonderful memories. Our Queen Bees are Ms Alex, Ms. Mary Ann and Ms. Jordyn. We believe play is crucial for our little Worker Bees throughout their day. In our experience, social skills are the foundation of a successful learning career. Through our perspective, children learn best when we let them navigate and lead in the experiences they have every day. We are here to guide and facilitate their curiosity as they explore their independence. We feel strongly that praising their effort is more impactful than praising the outcome.
Ms. Alex, Classroom Educator
I have been working with kiddos in an early childhood setting since Fall 2015.
Currently, I have my Child Development Associate degree and have worked with every age group. The two and three year olds are my favorite!
When I am not at work, I spend time with my husband and two kiddos. We enjoy jumping on the trampoline, playing in parks and spending time with our family.
Ms. Mary Ann, Classroom Educator
Hello,
My name is Mary Ann Busch. I have worked in education for 15 plus years in a variety of positions. Throughout the years, I have realized that Early Childhood Education is where I should be.
Robert, Grace and Will are my three wonderful children.
I am thrilled to be a part of KECC and hope I can contribute in a meaningful way to the lives of these children.
Ms. Jordyn, Flexible Classroom Educator
Hi! I’m Jordyn Frank! I have been working with children professionally for as long as I can remember!
I previously worked for another district's full day program for five years as well as working at Grace's Place Crisis Nursery from 2015-2023. I also volunteered at a camp for kids with heart defects (Camp Rhythm).
Currently, I am in school for Social Work at Missouri State University online.
In July of 2022, I got married to my husband, Christian. We now live out in Union, Mo and have two dogs, a corgi named Posie and a Cavapoo named Freddy! In our spare time, we love to play board games, read, and travel!
