Early Learning Academies’ Centers offer various programs to positively create learning opportunities for all ages and stages of child development. Offering curriculum, learning objectives, goals, and milestones that align with designated state standards, we prepare students for their greatest success while celebrating childhood – sparking curiosity, inspiring them to try, and encouraging the talents within every child.
In terms of building community and facilitating socialization, ELAC moves children with their peers as they graduate to the next levels, thereby fostering long-term friendships and creating continuity. This growth continuum spans the following programs.
Discovery (6 weeks to 12 months)
We celebrate the uniqueness of every baby. To do so, we partner with you to understand your baby’s needs. We provided daily logs of feedings, changings, and updates to keep you informed on all the things—big and little—that are taking place every day for your precious little one.
Babies in the Discovery Classrooms will:
To help lift ease the workload for families, we’re partnering with the Cuties Care program to provide diapers and wipes for babies and toddlers while they attend our school. For $10 a week, Cuties Care covers the cost of diapers and wipes. We know parents have a million things to manage—we’re happy to cross diapers off the list.
Investigators (12 months to 3 years)
Your toddler is meant to explore, take apart, put together, and question practically everything. Children in our Investigators classrooms learn through developmentally appropriate play in an environment where they can thrive.
Toddlers in the Investigators Classroom will:

Explorers (3 years old to 4 years old)
Preschool-age children in the Explorers Classroom understand the idea of rules and they’re learning to play with their peers. Our Explorers Classroom curriculum help children delve into different topics through age-appropriate and engaging activities.
Preschoolers in the Explorers Classroom will:
Pathfinders (4 years old to 5 years old)
Children in the Pathfinders Classroom will be asked to complete more concrete tasks to ensure they’re prepared for the next step in their education. Our goal is to ensure your child has mastered all the necessary skills to enter Kindergarten by providing individual planning, challenging your child, and considering their progress.
Pre-K children in the Pathfinders Classroom will:
Inspectors (5 years old)
We work closely with the education department and school district to ensure your Kindergartner is prepared for the next step in their education upon graduation. We work with each child individually, differentiating lessons and equipping young learners with the tools necessary to master the basics before flying up a level!
Kindergartners in the Inspectors Classroom will:
Voyagers (5 years old to 12 years old)
The Voyagers Classroom is designed to meet the unique needs of school-aged children. Most activities are child-led, which means students focus on their interests and move easily between activities. The children in this classroom get a balance of flexibility and structure—they have the time and space for schoolwork and fun with games, activities, and outside time.
School-age children in the Voyagers Classroom will:
In coordinating multiple schedules and fielding last-minute changes, flexibility is the name of the (family) game these days. You asked, we listened…and designed another great option for our busy families—Always There Drop-In Care. Created specifically for potty-trained students ages 2.5 years and up, this option provides dependable, educational and safe childcare around your schedule. Just call us and then drop off your child; there’s no weekly commitment or reserving space weeks in advance.
Voyagers (5 years old to 12 years old)
Voyagers Summer Camp is all about exploring the world around us and learning about people, places, and things that many of us have only seen on TV or in books.
Voyagers (campers) have the flexibility to select from a variety of exciting topics that will take them on incredible journeys to far-off destinations where they will learn about people such as Louis Armstrong, places like the Great Wall of China, and things such as the Eiffel Tower!
ELAC keeps the fun going even after “office hours”! Join us for extra learning and extra fun activities like:
