Jessica Poppert
Owner/Director
My name is Jessica and I am the owner and Director of Poppert Preschool. My 20+ years of experience in early childhood education and a background in business and management education has inspired and help create our unique school.
I am a mother of 3 and two of those three attend Poppert Preschool. My family and I enjoy hikes, dance parties in the living room and playing board games on our free time. Helping children grow and learn is an amazing job and I am thankful I get to be apart of it.
Kristin Roberts
Pre-K Lead Teacher
Hi! My name is Mrs. Kristin. I have been working in early childhood education for 12+ years. I completed 2 years at Concordia University in Early Childhood Education. I knew early on in life that it was my passion to teach. My favorite part of being a teacher is outdoor exploring, getting messy and being a part of the children's "little wins". My husband and I are licensed foster parents through Milwaukee County and enjoy advocating for the many children in our community. In my free time, I attend a local assembly for church and love to be outdoors.
