Preschool

Services

The Learning Center offers a preschool experience to all children with hands on, play based learning corresponding to a state approved curriculum. Lesson plans are created and implemented by certified staff in an effort to move children closer to their developmentally appropriate age levels based on Arkansas frameworks and the Arkansas kindergarten readiness checklist.

Integrated into this one preschool experience are four separate programs designed to address the different needs of children and their families. Below are the current programs we offer; however, TLCNA is committed to addressing the ever-changing needs of families in our communities. In our effort to be the premier provider in the area, we are continuing to develop new programs to offer solutions to family’s childcare needs.

See below for more information regarding the programs we currently offer.
