At the Early Learning Academy, we are committed to partnering with ELA families to begin a Kingdom focused education for their children. We provide a safe, Christ-centered and developmentally appropriate education for your child. Proverbs 22:6 states “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old, he will not depart from it.” We provide a well rounded preschool program with small class sizes for children aged 2 through 5 years old.

Gospel Light Bible curriculum is utilized in all grade levels. Children learn to recognize that the Bible is God’s word and that God loves and cares for them. The Bible stories lead children to experience God’s love and know Jesus. Preschoolers are forming their first impressions of God. We believe that their first impression should be of a Heavenly Father that loves them, and of Jesus, their life-long Friend and Savior.
Frog Street and Bob Jones curricula are also incorporated by grade level, as indicated below.
The P2 classes utilize the Frog Street (FS) curriculum for two’s. FS is designed around the latest scientific early brain research while focusing on enhancing the simple joy of childhood. Curiosity is encouraged and nurtured through exploration.
The K3 classes utilize the Frog Street (FS) curriculum. FS curriculum for K3 integrates instruction across developmental domains and early learning disciplines. Special attention is given to social-emotional development and provides many levels of support of differentiated instruction in Language and Communication, Emergent Literacy Reading and Writing, Mathematics, Science.
The K4 and Bridge classes utilize Bob Jones University's Footsteps for Fours. Footsteps for Fours presents an active, hands-on learning environment that includes individual activities and group activities as well as classroom centers for learning through play, and opportunities for teachers to begin biblical worldview shaping. Daily phonics, pre reading, and math lessons explore foundational skills while age-appropriate music, science, language arts, social studies, and handwriting segments give young learners opportunities to explore their world.
Music is an integral part of our program. Our staff shares their love of music with the children using a variety of fun activities.
