Hello! I’m Marquita Fleming. Atlanta has been my home for my entire life, although I was born in Oklahoma. I graduated from the University of West Georgia with a degree in Sociology and a minor in Criminology. For over 15 years, I have been passionately involved in various educational programs, summer camps, after-school activities, and tutoring, where I’ve had the privilege of connecting with children from diverse backgrounds and making a positive impact in my community. In 2019, I earned a Master’s Degree in Applied Behavior Analysis from Ball State University, specializing in Autism and focusing on children from PreK to 12th grade. Each interaction with children presents an opportunity for me to contribute meaningfully and nurture positive development. I am deeply committed to my work and have a genuine love for working with children! I am also the proud mommy of a baby boy here at Primrose 🙂

Hello! My name is Shawnte’ Oliver, and I am originally from Seattle, Washington. I come from Seattle Public Schools—the largest school district in the state—where I spent several years leading equity-focused programs, managing family and community engagement initiatives, and supporting special education services. I have over 15 years of experience in education and community engagement, working closely with diverse student populations and building strong partnerships between schools and families.
I hold a Master of Arts in Education from Cumberland University and a Bachelor of Science in Human Services with a concentration in Family and Children Services from the University of Phoenix. Since relocating to Georgia three years ago, I’ve continued to apply my background and passion for inclusive education in new settings, with a focus on creating meaningful, community-centered impact. In this new role as Engagement Manager, I am especially excited to build strong, trusting relationships with all of my Primrose students and families, and to continue fostering meaningful family engagement experiences that support each child’s growth, development, and sense of belonging.
