Mrs. Karen Chandgie
2 Day 1 year old class & 3 Day 2 year old class
Mrs. Chandgie grew up in Davidson, NC. However, she attended
Air Academy High School in Colorado Springs, Colorado because
her Dad was there on sabbatical. She earned her Early Childhood
Education degree at UNC Charlotte and moved to Statesville one
year after she married her husband, Scott, a Statesville native.
They have one daughter named Lauren, who is 16 years old and attended FPC Preschool. Her favorite color is sky blue and she loves
going to the beach with her family. Mrs. Chandgie and her family have a cat named
Lucky that found their family over 13 years ago. Some of her favorite hobbies include
reading and cooking. She has always loved being around children and started babysitting at age 10. Her favorite thing about teaching is the energy that the children bring
and being able to watch them grow and learn new things. She loves their enthusiasm
about everything. Mrs. Chandgie has been at FPC Preschool for 13 years. We are extremely lucky to have Mrs. Chandgie as a member of our FPC Preschool family. She truly loves the children and they learn so much from her. Thank you Mrs. Chandgie for all
that you do! We appreciate you so much!
