Ann Heineman

Half Day Morning Directress

Background

I started at NSMS in 1989 as an Assistant in the PM half day program.  I 

completed my training with Midwest Montessori Training Center in 1992.  I have 

taught both in the afternoon and in the morning programs.  As teachers we also 

complete 15 hours of in-service training per year in various early childhood 

classes and seminars.

I truly enjoy working with young children; I love experiencing each of their 

individual personalities.  I love watching them learn and succeed but I 

especially love talking to the children.  I learn as much from them as I hope 

they learn from me.

I enjoy working with the NSMS staff and getting to know the many families that I 

have had the pleasure of teaching their children.
