About
Welcome to Sunrise Preschools in Surprise where we pride ourselves on being a high-quality early learning center. My name is Joanne “Jo” Scheller, and I am the School Director. I began my journey in childcare over 30 years ago as a toddler teacher. Since then, I have grown into the roles of Assistant Director, and most recently, School Director. In addition to my extensive experience, I hold Early Childhood Education (ECE) credits and have undergone extensive ECE training. I am also a wife and mother to three beautiful daughters. In my free time, I enjoy cooking and going on outdoor adventures with my family and friends. As both a parent and an educator, I have had the privilege of witnessing my children’s growth through their preschool years. Ensuring quality care, fostering individualized relationships, and creating a home-like environment for our children to learn and grow in is of the utmost importance to me. I look forward to being a resource for your family, my team, and the communities we serve. Please feel free to stop in for a tour or call to speak with a member of our team. We look forward to the opportunity to build a long-lasting relationship with your family!
