Dear Families,

Your child’s journey determines their destination. Choosing a preschool is one of the most important decisions you will make for your child and your family. Our aim is to provide a warm, nurturing, stimulating, safe, and loving environment.

The current situation of COVID requires us all to pull together in careful management and disinfecting by both families and the staff of Assumption ECLC. We must all stay alert to the physical signs of our children and keep them home when they are sick. We have policies and procedures in effect to ensure that we safeguard every child and staff member as best as possible. We cannot promise a COVID-free environment. Zero risk tolerance is not realistic; coming to school will not be 100% risk free any more than driving a car is risk free. Most protocols are imperfect, but taken together, it’s a bit like swiss cheese. Each slice has holes but layered together, the holes begin to be covered and become a series of overlapping protocols to make us safer. This is an ever-changing time.

In the service of the child,

Diane M. Dodds, Director

Mission

“The Assumption Catholic Community, united in the Eucharist, provides a challenging academic education where living a Christ-centered life comes first.”

Philosophy Statement

Founded in Christ, the Assumption Early Childhood Learning Center creates a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment for children beginning at infancy. The teachers and staff care for and value each child, as a gift from God, and entirely promote their physical, intellectual, social, emotional, and spiritual growth. In partnership with families, children leave Assumption with the skills that provide them with a seamless transition into kindergarten. Each child develops a sense of confidence, autonomy, self-discipline, respect, and love of God and neighbor.
