Meet Mrs. Yang, our Pre-K Teacher; check out our classroom; and enjoy some light refreshments!

The Rising Stars Pre-K at LASER program is for children who are four and five years old who will be entering Kindergarten the following year. Classes will be offered 5 days a week, Monday through Friday from 9:10am-1:10pm (start time coinciding with Laurelhurst Elementary start time). The class is limited to 16 children. We will provide a 1:8 teacher/child ratio.

Rising Stars Pre-K at LASER provies a highly nurturing learning environment in which children develop academic, social and emotional readiness for Kindergarten. Our activities are planned each week and will introduce language arts, pre-literacy and math concepts, and science and geography in a fun learning environment. Our program has a diversified curriculum that also incorportates creative movement and language instruction during the school year. We also will have field trips into the community.

Rising Stars Pre-K at LASER is a great place for 4 and 5 year olds to spend a wonderful, adventurous and magical year learning and playing with their peers!

Hi, my name is Katie Yang and I am thrilled to be joining the L.A.S.E.R. team as the Lead Pre-K Teacher! I obtained my Master’s degree in Education last year and completed my student teaching in Kindergarten. Most recently I have worked as a social worker for Children’s Services and although I found a lot of satisfaction in my work, I really love teaching. One of the things I love to do in my off time is spending time outdoors with my husband. We enjoy going on walks, hikes, and bike rides in and around Seattle.

My name is Rachel Clark and I am excited to be working with Mrs. Yang and all the wonderful Rising Stars in the Pre-K classroom! I spent the last 4 years running the afterschool and summer programs at the Center for Human Service in Shoreline, and I am also an Apprentice Teaching Artist with the Seattle Children's Theater. I love using my imagination to travel to new places, create fun art projects, and do dramatic movement. I am also interested in learning about different languages and cultures, and I spent 2 years as a Peace Corps volunteer in Senegal, West Africa. I look forward to lots of adventures with the Rising Stars this year!

Additional Emergency Cards (2) are necessary for registration and can be picked up at LASER.
