Primrose School of Winter Springs

Primrose School of Winter Springs takes learning and character building seriously. And with good reason. Primrose provides early education and care for children from infanthood through kindergarten, as well as after-school care. 

“Through age five, the brain sees major growth,” says Diana Palen, who owns the school with husband Gregory. “The importance of quality education during this phase cannot be overstated.”

At Primrose, lessons sparking children’s curiosity, building their character, and fostering their confidence are all rolled into the curriculum.

Those lessons are reinforced through purposeful play and The Primrose Friends (puppets who teach about character traits). Now, The Primrose Friends can also be seen on YouTube in a research-based video series created by Primrose educators. 

Also, the school’s proven educational approach is now available to more families – no matter their income level – because of Step Up For Students (a nonprofit organization that offers tailored scholarships to Florida students who attend private schools).

Step Up For Students, which offers an easy online application process, is a welcome option for parents who want to personalize their children’s education, says Diana. 

Because of Step Up For Students, the team at Primrose School of Winter Springs can welcome even more children to learn and grow.
