Martha is no stranger to the WEE program as she has been with the program when it first started as a Mother’s Morning Out program in 2001. Since then, Martha has been a teacher in all ages and has loved on more children than we can count. Ms. Martha is a great resource to this church and WEE community, and we wouldn’t be able to run our school without her. Ms. Martha can be found in the office laminating, copying or cutting out supplies or in a classroom getting her hands dirty in play dough and sensory bins alongside of the kids. Ms. Martha loves each and every kid and says summer is her least favorite months as she is not at school around the kids.
