Mission

Our mission is to create a challenging learning environment that encourages high expectations for success through development-appropriate instruction, that allows for individual differences and learning styles. LSA promotes a safe, orderly, caring, and supportive environment. Each student's self-esteem is fostered by positive reinforcement and relationships with students and staff. We strive to have our parents, teachers, and community members actively involved on our students' learning.

Points Of Pride

LSA aspires to do this so, that we make a difference in the lives of children and families in the communities where we live and work. LSA provides a rich learning environment with curricula that are developmentally appropriate to the specific ages in each classroom. LSA offers flexible day routine that allows children to advance at their own pace. LSA’s program is designed to enhance child development in the following areas: creativity, self-expression, decision-making, problem solving, responsibility, independence, and reasoning related to the Early Learning Standards. LSA offers programs and services for children as young as 18 months up to 12 years old. Each program features age-appropriate activities and learning provided by knowledgeable, caring teachers and staff who understand the many stages of early childhood development.

Admissions Policy

Immunizations are required according to the current schedule recommended by the U.S. Public Health Services. Every July, we check with the public health department for updates of the recommended immunization schedule. Our state regulations regarding attendance of children who are not immunized due to religious or medical reasons are followed. Unimmunized children are excluded during outbreaks of vaccine preventable illness as directed by the state health department.- - For your child’s protection, we recommend that all children receive the standard immunizations including DTP, measles, rubella, polio, Hepatitis B and a TB test. We require a physician’s statement of inoculations and general medical health upon enrollment. Medical Health Forms must be updated according to the age schedule on the reverse of the form to comply with PA Department of Welfare regulations. Failure to provide updated records may result in the termination of your child from the center. Updating a form each time you visit the doctor should keep you up to date. Please see- your Center Director for additional forms.

Safety and Culture

We provide a rich learning environment with curricula that are developmentally appropriate to the specific ages in each classroom. We have a flexible day routine that allows children to advance at their own pace. We strongly believe that learning happens through play. Learning and exploring are hands-on and are facilitated through interest areas. Our program is designed to enhance children’s development in the following areas: creativity, self-expression, decision-making, problem-solving, responsibility, independence, and reasoning. We encourage openness to that which is different from us, and the ability to work and play with others. Copies of daily schedules are posted in each classroom.
