Our Teachers
Our teachers have over twenty plus years of experience combined in education. Our teachers are passionate about the children in their care while building lasting relationships with the children and families that we serve.
Philosophy
Here at CCUMC ELC we use a curriculum called Frog Street.
The Frog Street Infant curriculum equips caregivers to foster essential growth and build a strong learning foundation for little one’s ages 0-18 months.
Designed around the latest scientific early brain development research, Frog Street’s Toddler curriculum is a year-round program for children ages 18-36 months that focuses on enhancing the simple joy of childhood while equipping caregivers to nurture curiosity through exploration.
Frog Street addresses the cognitive, language, literacy, physical, and social-emotional developmental domains of each child.
Location
We are located in the Whitley County Consolidated Schools District. For school age children who are enrolled in our before/after school program and who attend Little Turtle Elementary School, we have a morning and afternoon bus that picks up and drops off at our center.
