What is a day at Children's Lighthouse like?
Each day at Children's Lighthouse begins with a parent or guardian entering the school using their unique access code and an initial greeting by our friendly front desk staff as each parent or guardian signs their child in for the day.After that, your child is taken to their classroom where they start their day!

For infant children, our Lighthouse BRIGHT program supports the development of higher thinking skills through a curriculum designed to build healthy brains at the earliest age.

Pre-school children will excel with our CARES curriculum featuring The Learning Wall, Learning Lesson Session, Centers That Shine, and 3E: Outdoor Curriculum that involves exploration, experimentation, and exercise. Your school-aged child will get to experience our xSTREAM Quest before and after school program is an exciting curriculum based on STREAM labs in a Questing Studio where Questers earn Solo, Team, Community and Outdoor Cog Badges on a path to becoming a Quest Master. In the process, they learn using their higher-thinking skills in creative ways.

A day at Children's Lighthouse also includes nap and/or quiet time (depending on age), outside play and learning, and provided meals. Each Children's Lighthouse Early Learning School provides breakfast, lunch, and snack. Special dietary requirements can be met for your child!

After a fun-filled day, a parent guardian will pick their child up and go through the same sign out process as the morning.
