The Early Learning Center of Woodland Church
About this Organization
The Early Learning Center (ELC) has operated for over 50 years in Algiers and has students from throughout the Greater New Orleans area. The ELC offers a half day Christian Pre-school Developmental Program for 1 - 4 year old students.
Various topics are introduced during the year through reading, dramatic play, art, movement, music and other creative methods. Classroom activities are supplemented with a weekly chapel service, a music class and a variety of outside resources. The curriculum is based on sound principles regarding brain development, mastery orientation, emotional well-being and spiritual growth. The ELC adopts the educational philosophy that play, through age-appropriate activities in a child-paced environment, is the best method of learning in early childhood and forms the strongest foundation for later academic achievement.
