Educated Preschool Staff | First Aid Certified Teachers in Chesapeake

Our Staff

The teachers at The Oak Grove School are chosen on the basis of their education, their experience, and most importantly, their understanding of children and the caring respect they exhibit toward them.

Our belief is that a positive, nurturing relationship must be present between each teacher and student in our program.

2024-2025 School Year

All staff members have undergone background checks and are CPR/First Aid certified. As a staff, we are mandatory reporters of Child Abuse/Neglect. Several teachers are trained to assist a child with an emergency inhaler, as well as EpiPen/Auvi-Q for allergic reactions.

As a group, we stay on the cutting edge of early childhood development by participating in workshops and training sessions throughout the year.

We toured numerous schools before walking in to Oak Grove - and when we did it was a true breath of fresh air. It was the first place my daughter would let me put her down, which was amazing in itself - but I loved seeing the small class size, the personalized attention, and the feeling I got that my child would be in a safe and encouraging environment while in school every morning. We enrolled our daughter and since day one, all the teachers and staff have exceeded our expectations. Next year will be our third at Oak Grove and we are going to be so sad to see our time come to an end with Kindergarten graduation. The level of community we’ve experienced as a part of the preschool is unmeasurable. If you’re looking for a beautiful school where your child (and you!) can really thrive, Oak Grove is your home.
