To All Of Our Lil' Sprouts Academy family, past and present...
Thank you for all of you for trusting us and helping us to provide the best care, for the best children in Thomasville.
My story includes my passion. I have been teaching for 26 years. To me it is the most rewarding job in the world. Not only do you get to form relationships with families, but watching children grow and reach goals is something you could truly never get tired of. I opened July 13th, 2015 all of the pieces were laid out to a perfect puzzle. However, nothing has went as planned, I was supposed to have help and over the last 9 years I have solely done 1,000 jobs. I have been in an insurmountable odds from the beginning.
This is probably the hardest thing I have ever had to sit down and type in my life. July 26th, 2024, Lil’ Sprouts Academy is closed due to many different reasons. I know our current parents understand how this decision was not made overnight and not lighthearted. I have tried my best and given 150% of myself to provide every family with a safe, enriching as well as affordable place to entrust with your precious children but I had to make this devasting decision.
I have been fighting an uphill mountain every day of my life and it just cannot be good for me in any area of my health. It is constant stress, constant rule changes, constant requirements not included everything left out. This is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. The cards are stacked against me. Not one, not 2, a billion and I have been picking them up since day one, but I am not doing anything but getting further and further behind. Rather or not I want to make this decision the hard facts are always just that.
This is heart wrenching for myself, and all our staff as well, we love our children and each one of our families. I wish I could be Ms. Keri forever, that was my plan but sometimes plans don’t go the way we plan them. I know we all have a lesson in that. I am sorrier than you could ever imagine sharing this news and to have this news with all of you. Life's journey is an adventure, and you, my dear students, are the fearless explorers. Best wishes for your next chapter.
To our parents THANK YOU SO SO MUCH for allowing us to love your children and make so many beautiful memories. Without you, your reviews, your recommendations we would have never been there! I love you all, truly with all of my heart.
Sincerely and Sadly
Keri Adams-Moody
