About Cadence Academy Preschool in Alpharetta, GA

Cadence Academy Preschool (formerly Peachtree Park Prep) offers an enriching and challenging preschool environment that lovingly prepares young children for future academic and professional success.

If you’re looking for a well-balanced preparatory experience that goes much deeper than typical daycare programming, you’ve come to the right place! Our preschool programs give our students a solid foundation in core subjects such as Reading, Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, but we balance these activities with lots of fun and specialty instruction in Art, Music, Spanish & Chinese, and Physical Education.

Our Programs

Loving to Learn

Loving to Learn is a theme that runs through each and every class at Cadence Academy Preschool. Your child’s first educational experiences are extremely important because they shape how your child will respond to educational opportunities throughout their academic career. We have high academic standards at Cadence Academy Preschool, but we achieve them through exciting and engaging educational activities so our preschool students can naturally develop a love of learning.

Kind Child

Kind Child is a program that helps us focus on the development of character and social-emotional skill. We want every child to feel at home at our preschool and Kind Child is the perfect way for our students and staff to make kindness a habit. We work on social and emotional skills every month and a valuable character trait such as Thankfulness, Empathy, Respect, and a Positive Self-Image every two months. Our goal is to elevate the emotional well-being of every child in our care and enrich friendships!

Mickie Nevel

School Director

Our beautiful school opened in January of 1998 and my daughter and son were two of the very first students to walk through our doors! Fast forward to July 1998, I started working here as a Toddler Teacher, quickly moved to Assistant Director and have been the School Director for many many years. In my spare time I love to practice yoga, shop for the latest trends and spend time with my family! It has been so rewarding to stay connected with our families over the years. We have hired former students as teachers and even have our very first alumni baby enrolled at our school! Our lifelong motto of “loving to learn” is thriving in the community and it has been my honor to be a part of this journey!

I started at this school in February of 1999. I have been the School Age Director, Art Director, Preschool lead teacher and in 2021 became Assistant Director.

I consider myself a leader with the heart of a teacher. My hobbies and interests are spending time with friends and family, crafting, watching movies & telling jokes. I have been married to my husband since 1989 and I am proud mother of two and even prouder grandmother of 3. Every day I love to help guide and observe little minds grow and learn!

Teacher of the Year

I started working as a lunch lady in 2005 and then I was promoted to assist in the Toddler classroom. I learned how to adjust in the various classes and all age groups. It is rewarding to be a part of the kids lives and see their different personalities. I enjoy helping the children learn and create in the classroom. It makes me so happy to see the children achieve their goals. In my free time, I like to watch TV and spend time with my family. I also like to bake desserts and go shopping.

Cadence was our daughter’s very first school experience, and we will always be grateful for how welcoming and supportive the team was as she adjusted to such a big transition. She struggled quite a bit with separation anxiety in the beginning, and everyone was incredibly patient with her. Over time, they helped turn a child who was nervous about going to school into one who felt comfortable, safe and excited to walk through the doors each day. Ms. Mickie, the Director, is wonderful and always made us feel at ease as parents. Communication has been great throughout our time at Cadence, and we’ve always received plenty of updates about what the kids are doing and working on throughout the day. Most importantly, we always felt that our daughter was in a safe, warm and caring environment with people who genuinely cared about her. We’re very appreciative of the role Cadence played in her first experience with school and thankful to Ms. Mickie and the team for helping make that transition such a positive one for our family!

We have recently enrolled our grandson, 2 1/2, moving him from Phase daycare. He has had a wonderful experience in transitioning. Wish we had done earlier. The staff is stable and experienced with loving care.

Here’s a polished version that keeps the warmth and enthusiasm while improving flow and readability: What makes Carrington Avalon so special is the incredible staff who pour their hearts into everything they do. We are fortunate to have wonderful teachers like Miss Caroline and Miss Sravani, who truly adore their students. Miss Caroline even takes time out of her weekends to attend student events, showing just how much she cares about the children and their families. The same can be said for the intermediate class. Miss Jainee and Miss Priyanka consistently go above and beyond to make learning fun, engaging, and memorable. From songs about metamorphosis to ABC scavenger hunts, they create experiences that keep the kids excited about learning every day. The children are loved, safe, and learning—what more could a parent ask for? One final note: the office staff is absolutely top-notch. The events they organize for our community, such as Movie Night, Bingo Night, and Art Exhibits, demonstrate how much they value and support their families. Miss Britni, Miss Marlaina, and Miss Katie put their hearts into making this school such a special place, and it shows. We are incredibly grateful to be part of the Carrington Avalon family.
