BONNIE TOTH
Director & 2's Teacher
My name is Bonnie Toth. I am honored to serve as our school’s 2’s teacher and director. I am a mommy to three amazing kiddos, wife to a very long-suffering husband, and teacher to adults and children alike. I am passionate about early childhood education. I am also committed to being a life-long learner and frequently attend conferences and classes related to early childhood. I hold a Bachelor's in Secondary Education, with an emphasis on Biological Sciences and a Master's in Curriculum and Instruction.
I believe that all people learn best when given a safe space, time, and support to grow. I am a Las Vegas native and enjoy all that our city and surrounding areas have to offer. My family and I love camping, hiking, and all things outdoors!
I am excited to play, learn, and grow with you and your families!

YASMIN ROJAS
3's Teacher
Hello, my name is Yasmin Rojas and I’m excited to join the co-op as the new 2’s teacher. I have 3 boys of my own, and I am a Grandma to two boys as well. I also have 5 little pugs! I have been working with kids for more than 14 years. Most of my experience is with toddlers and preschool aged children. Teaching is my passion. I love art and music. I especially like painting with acrylics. I speak Spanish and I’m excited to be able to share it with the kids in our class. I love to be outdoors- nature is one of my favorite places to be.
SAMI STEINBRUNN
3's/4's Multiage Teacher
I am Cassandra "Sami" Steinbrunn and I am honored to be teaching the multiage class. I am new to Nevada and have fallen in love with Las Vegas and the Kids' Co-op community.
I am a newly retired teacher from California and have had the opportunity to teach special education grades preschool to high school. I am excited about this new journey and the opportunity to return to preschool and early childhood education as it is such an amazing season in a child's development, and the opportunity to see our students blossom and grow is a gift.
My husband and I recently became empty-nesters and moved to Las Vegas last year with our pug named Hank. I enjoy cooking, gardening, outdoor adventures with Hank, and visiting our son and daughter in California.
AVIENNE FIRE
4's Teacher
Hello! My name is Avienne Fire and I am honored to be the 4's teacher. My family joined the Co-op in 2021 and immediately fell in love with the philosophies and community. I have been a parent, board member, and now a teacher at the Co-op. I taught dance for 12 years and worked as a teacher's assistant for 5 years. I feel very privileged to be able to combine my passion for teaching and gentle parenting.
About me: I absolutely love my family and being a mother. I have two daughters and a wonderful husband. I enjoy museums, the performing arts, and dance parties with my kids. I taught many dance styles for many years, but my favorite was ballet.
VICKY THOMPSON
Office Manager
Hi, my name is Vicky Thompson and I am the office manager at Kids’ Co-op. I am an NAU graduate with a degree in business. My husband Curt and I have been married for over 30 years and our son Matt was a Co-op kid.
I have been a part of Kids’ Co-op since 2000. I started my Co-op journey as a parent serving as classroom coordinator and I was fundraising chair on the board of directors. I taught the 2’s for several years and subbed numerous times in the 3’s and 4’s classrooms.
It is a privilege to be able to work with an amazing group of teachers and I enjoy working with the parents in their many roles at the Co-op. I love seeing the joy on the children’s faces when they experience the mud bog for the first time or getting messy with goop. I have been known to spontaneously join a circle or sit with the kids at snack. And I love to give lots of hugs! The Co-op is an amazing place and I hope that you can begin your child’s education journey with us and experience the Co-op magic.
