Our Philosophy at Discovery Learning Center...
At Discovery Learning Center we are interested in the whole child...in his development
socially, emotionally, intellectually, physically and spiritually. Our well rounded program offers art activities,
music, story telling, number and language readiness, dramatic play, science, social studies, interest centers and
culinary art. We develop small muscle coordination through the use of our many manipulative materials. Our well
shaded outdoor play area is not only used to develop large muscles, but also to have fun. Unlike most schools today,
Discovery strives to assist the parent in developing strong Christian values. Your children are very special and
our goal is to help build self esteem in each child and love for God. We also stress honesty and responsibility
at Discovery Learning Center.

Staff
Our teachers meet the state requirements and are trained and experienced in the
field of Early Childhood Education. Our teachers, aides and counselors are carefully chosen, mature adults who
are experienced at working with young children.
Discipline
We believe that a good learning situation cannot exist without a disciplined
environment. We teach our children respect for other people, respect for property and good safety habits. We supervise
your children constantly, and use positive reinforcement to remind them of school rules when necessary. Children
who disobey the rules frequently are temporarily isolated from the rest of the group. Weapons or toys of violent
nature are not allowed at Discovery Learning Center.
Class Placement
Discovery Learning Center provides specially equipped, self-contained classrooms.
Children are place in one of these classes based on age and maturity and moved into older groups when they are
ready and class space is available. The younger children have their own carefully designed playground. The older
children share our larger stimulating playground. Both playgrounds provide lots of shade to protect your child's
sensitive skin.
