Paulette Landrum

Paulette has worked at FCP&K since 2003 and has worked in early childhood education since 1988. She has been married to her husband Gary since 1979 and has two sons and 5 grandchildren. In her spare time, she loves to go for drives in the mountains and be with her grandkids – they are the joy of her life. She has such a heart for the 2 ½ year old class and has been with them since she started here. She says it warms her heart as they develop and start understanding all of God’s lessons, the Bible, and other basic skills. She always prays that through the Bible lessons they will realize how much God loves them and they will always learn to trust and rely on Him.
