Kathy Krajewski
Director/Teacher

From the moment I was six and walked into Miss Bennett's kindergarten class, I knew that I wanted to be a teacher.  I graduated from Stockton State College with a BA in Sociology and a K - 12 teaching certificate.  After moving to Colorado, my professional path took a few side trips but my ultimate goal remained the same, coming to fruition when I was a home day care provider and complimented that with a small, in-home preschool program.  In 1993, I met Jan Ferrari and partnered with her to open The Louisville Preschool.  I took over the director position in 1999 while remaining in the classroom, where my passions truly lie.  I am energized by children as they explore and discover the world, fueled by their questions, and dedicated to helping them find strategies that will allow them to become life-long learners.  I also love that the relationship I build with children and their families continues well beyond our preschool days together.

Teacher

Coming from a family of educators, my love of teaching has been with me since I was a young child.  I went to school at the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire where I earned my Bachelors and Education degree with an emphasis in K-6th grades and a minor in Interpersonal Communication.  I moved to the Denver area in 1991 and started teaching Pre-K followed by a long term substitute position with Kindergartners and then on to a First Grade teaching position.   I stepped away to raise my three children but remained close to teaching.  In 2012, I was introduced to Louisville Preschool with my third child and joined the teaching team in 2015.  I treasure every moment I help kids learn and grow; being with children fills my soul with joy.

Catherine (Cat) Denewiler
Teacher

I have always been drawn to the field of education, and knew from a very early age that being a teacher was going to be a part of my future.  I attended University of California, Irvine and earned a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Social Behavior.  I have over 11 years of teaching experience as an Elementary and High School Teacher, including a diverse background in Special Education.  My love and appreciation for The Louisville Preschool started as a parent in 2014 and started as a Teacher in 2015.  The Louisville Preschool truly nurtures every child and celebrates the talents of each preschooler that walks through its doors.  I believe that learning possibilities are endless, and I love watching each child learn and grow through creative exploration and positive play experiences.  I am honored to be a part of The Louisville Preschool’s extraordinary team of educators and families!
