Located in the Washington Park area, St. John's Early Learning Center is a year-round program that serves children ages 18 months through 5 years. The center is part of a larger K-8 Lutheran elementary school that also offers extended school care programming and a summer day camp program (the summer camp is for children exiting kindergarten through 7th grade). The curriculum addresses growth in faith, cognitive learning, social & emotional growth, and physical & motor development. The staff believes that the curriculum must be flexible and creative to respond to the multi-faceted challenges faced by today's children and families. An integrated approach is utilized to prepare young children to succeed in kindergarten and beyond while also supporting the values grounded in a faith-based learning environment. St. John's ELC provides a safe, wholesome, happy environment where children can assemble, work and play Monday through Friday, 7:00am -6:00pm.
