During their time in the Helpful Hippos classroom, the children will experience a morning circle time, small group activities centered around art, colors/shapes and texture table, and an outside recess time. Each child in our Helpful Hippos classroom is taking one nap a day, enjoying our nutritional menu, and learning to use utensils.

Lead Teacher: Ms. Averi

Hello! My name is Ms. Averi and I am the Lead Teacher in the Helpful Hippos Classroom.

I graduated from Forest Hills Central High School in 2019, then went on to Michigan State University where I graduated in 2023. I studied Environmental Geoscience and Sustainable Natural Resource Recreation Management and love outdoor education. 

I am so grateful to be on this new adventure with your child!
