Dena Spadavecchia

Director

I'm Dena, and I'm proud to be the Director of KLA Schools of Boynton Beach since 2022 after previously leading the Ft. Lauderdale location beginning in 2019. With more than 20 years of experience in Early Childhood Education and degrees in both Business Management and Early Childhood Education, I'm passionate about creating meaningful connections with children, families, and teachers. My goal is to ensure that every child feels valued, respected, and supported as they grow and learn.

I'm grateful to be part of a community that embraces the Reggio Emilia philosophy, which aligns so closely with my own beliefs about how children learn best- through curiosity, exploration, and strong relationships. Most importantly, I' excited to get to know you and your child.

Being part of these early years is such a special privilege, and I look forward to working together to make your family's experience at KLA Schools of Boynton Beach joyful, welcoming and memorable.

Michelle Pernas

Pedagogical Coordinator

My name is Michelle Pernas. I was born and raised in Puerto Rico. I have a Masters in preschool and elementary education. After many years working as a teacher, I moved to Miami and became part of the KLA Family. This is when I fell in love with a philosophy that would change my approach to education forever. At KLA schools, I was introduced and learned the Reggio Emilia Philosophy and became passionate about creating environments and opportunities that value and respect the image of the child. I have attended several trainings and conferences throughout the US and I also had the amazing opportunity to visit the city of Reggio Emilia and be part of a wonderful Study Group.

As a Pedagogical Coordinator, I enjoy supporting and guiding teachers in their everyday journey of finding ways to offer children endless opportunities to develop their abilities so they can become well rounded human beings. Children are our future and I feel blessed to be a part of their development. Through inspirations from Reggio Emilia and working with teachers, I strive to support children to develop into independent and passionate learners.

We can't wait to meet your family
