She thoroughly enjoyed high school and was an active member of her school’s Pom Pom Squad.  Juanita attended Harris-Stowe and Maryville University, graduating in 2011 with a degree in Psychology. Juanita’s love for education and a desire to help others, especially the young, led to a career in Child Care and later, Early Childhood Education, for 18 years at the Walter Ambrose Family Center. During her many years working at the center Juanita’s passion for teaching and children was evident in her everyday life. This love and commitment helped her form many lasting relationships.
