Alexa Pushcar
Director/Preschool teacher
Born and raised in Cheyenne, WY, Alexa graduated from East High School and then attended the University of Wyoming, where she studied Elementary Eduation. She graudated with her bachelors in 2021 and has been in Early Childhood Education since 2009. She was a lead pre-k teacher for over a year and also assistant director. Her philosophy is based on her uncompromising belief that all children can thrive, given a positive learning environment, strong and knowledgeable leadership, a committed and focused educational team, encouraging community, and a supportive family unit. I am passionate about watching the children grow from infancy to kindergarten. My dream and goal is to have the kids walk in needing to learn and walking out ready for the future and above where they need to be. I come from a close family, have a younger sister and brother, a niece and nephew. She has two beautiful twin girls, and a sassy-sweet 3.5 year old. She also owns Diamond Elite Gymnastics.
Her hobbies include reading, camping, hunting, holiday festivities, lake time, and gymnastics.
