Preschool Teacher Kathy Yurchak

Kathy Yurchak

I came to Cullowhee Kids in 2017 as part of an internship program through Western Carolina University. While interning at Cullowhee Kids, I had the incredible opportunity to learn under the guidance of an amazing team.

I have since graduated with my BSW, and I have found my home at Cullowhee Kids. For my first 3 years I was a teaching assistant and for 2020-21 school year I will be the 2 year old teacher taking over Ms. Charla’s position.  Ms. Charla is now a 3-4 year old teacher.  I have enjoyed the privilege of working with all the different classes and ages at the preschool! I believe working with children is a great opportunity. The years we spend with your children are very important and this is an amazing age to work with. I am looking forward to many wonderful years to come.

Outside the classroom, I love being outdoors either hiking or just simply relaxing. I also love animals! I have three dogs and two cats, which keep me very busy.
