hillary Adams
Hillary Adams serves as Director of Avery Preschool.
She is a native of WV, and she and her husband of 18 years, Scott, reside in Monongalia County. She loves going on "adventures" with Scott, and loves the outdoors... from the mountains to the seas.
She spends much of her summer days on the Delaware beaches. She loves crafting and spending time with her teenage daughter.
She loves her position with Avery, and found early childhood education as a second calling. She credits her family's support for her success as she was able to graduate with honors from Pierpont CTC after returning to school in her thirties... and has never regretted the decision to pursue her passion. She believes she was meant to help kiddos discover that everything they need is already inside of them; and that with knowledge, everything is possible.
She loves the daily excitement of working with children, and enjoys being able to act and dress silly sometimes at work! She counts the Preschool and liturgical arts team which she chairs, to be blessing in her life. She is thankful to play her part in enhancing worship liturgically, and finds such joy in experiencing the wonder of littles as they learn, grow, and discover God!
