The center focuses on the
safety and support of the whole child. The Early Education Center is a
self-contained world: bathrooms are in the classroom, there is a
drinking fountain, and a capable staff that helps the children to feel
secure. Our program is organized thematically. That is, children work in "centers", which help them focus on spiritual growth, math, reading, science, discovery, imagination, socialization and personal growth.

The children are the focus: we strive to help them to learn the academic information that will gear them for success, while at the same time reinforcing the religious values that will help them to become great human beings.
We view parents as partners in the educational process. No school is right for every child. But we believe that we provide a unique environment at an affordable price. We know that our parents are focused on the success of their children. So are we.
We believe authentic learning gives us the skills to become successful persons. By striving to discover the many ways people are smart, we help students develop these gifts. Our students excel in traditional academic areas, and our Catholic environment helps them to become great human beings as well.
The renovation of our Early Education Center was made with the needs of the student at the center. We strive to get the benefits of combining the best of a multi-age environment with the best of a single age classroom. By being able to focus on what children need, we are able to challenge them to excel when appropriate, and to provide them with the support to be ready for success.
The easiest and best way to see who we are is to visit. We can arrange tours at your convenience. Seeing us "in action" in our new space will help you to see if we can provide the right environment for your child.
