Preschool Enrichment Team

Acorn Learning Center provides a toddler, pre-school, and before/after school programs offering half and full day care for children. We provide environments that contributes to social, emotional, intellectual and physical development of the young child. Mission The school's program is designed to provide opportunities in a non-discriminating environment that contributes to the social, emotional, intellectual and physical development of the young child. The atmosphere is one of warmth and concern that is planned to include materials that provide first hand learning experiences, encourage creative expression and the development of a secure self image. We feel that a genuine interest and acceptance of the child as he or she will create the foundation of the individual that he or she may become.
