The Loretto Early Childhood Center provides a
strong educational environment for young children.
It recognizes children as gifted, unique personalities
needing individual care for appropriate development.
The school supports the importance of family in
the life of young children as they grow through
their early school experience.
The curriculum concentrates on the development
of the whole child: spiritual, emotional, intellectual,
social, and physical, represented in the logo by
the pentagon. The child’s open arms await
the dove and depict the giving and receiving God’s
love.
The grounds of Loretto Center offer the beauty
and space to go sledding in the winter, romping
in apple orchards in the fall, flying kites in
the spring, and playing games in the grass in the
summer.
Admissions: LECC is open to any
child regardless of creed or race.
Four year-old classes are held Monday, Wednesday,
and Friday.
Three year-old classes are held Tuesday and Thursday.
Morning classes are 9:00 AM - 11:30 AM
Afternoon classes are 12:30 PM - 3:00 PM
