Fours & Fives Teacher

Mrs. Julie Spinelli

Hello and welcome to the William R. Lower Center.  My name is Julie Spinelli and I am the Director as well as the Lead Preschool Teacher.

I am married to a wonderful man, Adam Spinelli, who is the Assistant Men's Soccer Coach at MSU-Billings.  We just moved here in July of 2007 from our hometown in Stafford, Virginia.

I graduated from Longwood University located in Farmville, Virginia with a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology with a Teacher Concentration in Physical Education (PK-12).  Last year I taught 9th and 10th graders Health, Physical Education, and Drivers Education.  I also coached Field Hockey and Girls soccer.

I am the lead teacher in the Preschool, 4 and 5 year old, room.  In this room, we will be learning through a center based "hands on" curriculum that will help to get your child ready for kindergarten.  Your child will develop individually as well as complete activities in subject areas such as Music and Art, Self-Directed Learning, Cooking, Learning through Movement, Science, Field Trips, Bible Stories and Songs, and appropriate activities for Language and Math.  We also have many outside activities and programs to help create a unique learning environment.

Please feel free to talk to me anytime if you have any questions or concerns about your child or this center.  My door is always open.
